Last May 4, 2014, Sunday, I had the privilege to journey with some participants of Christian Life Program of the South East Melbourne Unit headed by Bro. Neil and Sis. Arlene. Before the start of my sharing, I had the opportunity to chat with some staff members and I appreciated very much the overwhelming support that they have extended to their CLP program. They even brought along the other members of their families like their children. Consequently, they had so much fun while playing with one another.
As I went through with my sharing with them, I was giving in put on the greatness of God's love for mankind- that He even sacrificed His own Son to save the latter from total damnation due to sin. Furthermore, this great act by our Heavenly Father solicits from mankind an inner and genuine response to make his own contribution to achieve a world full of peace and harmony.

Moreover, along our sharing I also mentioned to them the significance of the parable of the prodigal son. That it sits alongside with the focus of our sharing which is God's love. I identified with them the similarity of the father in that parable to God Himself who somehow would always believe in mankind in spite of all his limitations and shortcomings.
We ended up our sharing by affirming each one's greatness in the eyes of God and by telling each one how he/she has to make true to all his/her commitments to God. Indeed, it was such an honour to journey with those members of South East Unit. May they continue to grow in number.
