Today's sermon topic was about how overcoming temptations can make us stronger. I can attest to that though! It's advised to change the direction of your thoughts if you know that temptation is approaching in order to quell the likelihood of sin(Anger, Greed, Sloth, Pride, Lust, Envy, Gluttony) happening. Temptation is not a sin, but doing things because of temptation is! Only weaklings crumble easily & are at the mercy of others because they have little or no self control, and I'm sure that majority of us do not want to appear pathetic!
As usual, things are easier said than done...it's pretty obvious to say that struggles are inevitable in life. All that's left for me to conclude would be that we gotta learn to keep ourselves in check whenever's possible. Moving on...!
Lunched at IMM's Crystal Jade for my sis' birthday celebration. Portions seem to be shrinking O.o Shopped at the supermarket afterwards, and managed to find olive oil & a variety of Lindt choc bars! Couldn't find rosemary, what luck! Went on to Daiso to check out some jap products, and managed to find some yokan & kinako powder! =)
Cake from Four Leaves...just love the texture & flavour! XD Didn't eat this til the next day, since we cut the cake close to 12am, and I was pretty full from a sushi dinner...
Note: Did a calculation of Lindt's pricing versus Valrhona's...Lindt costs $5.50 for a 100g bar(if there's no promotion which will reduce the price to $4.60 or sth), so that works out to $13.75 per 250g, while Valrhona is $13.95 per 250g packet...it's a little early to conclude, but I kinda like Valrhona better since there's a wider variety brought into SG! =)
