There is Mother's Day, there is Father's Day, how about combining them into just ONE DAY? :) That's exactly what we did when we had our very own first Filial Piety Sunday! It's a time for us to honor our parents and all our elderly too.
The church organized a lunch for us to bring our families as an expression of our love for them. Our own brothers and sisters presented wonderful items which brought a lot of joy and laughter to all. Catch all the action here! http://picasaweb.google.com/tbcalbum/FilialPietySunday?authkey=m_o8Yu0CpAU
Thank God for giving us our parents, whom have loved us selflessly in every way. The bible teaches us in the fifth commandment that comes with a promise "Honor your father and your mother, that you may have long life". To honor our parents is not merely showering them with gifts or monetary things, but to obey them, to love them, is what God requires us to do.
Even more so, our Father in heaven loves us so much that He gave His One and Only Son our Lord Jesus Christ to die for our sins on the cross that we might have life, and have life to the fullest. I thank God for this wonderful love!
