[YouTube] Honoring Mother’s 88th Birthday at Foong Wei Heong Seafood Restaurant August 24, 2025 bizadmin Celebrating the 88th birthday of our beloved mother was a moment of profound gratitude and reverence. Though her life has been marked by discipline, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to her work, she has always remained the firm cornerstone of our family. At Foong Wei Heong Seafood Restaurant, we gathered as one to recognize her enduring influence, a legacy shaped not by constant presence but by the strength of her values, which continue to guide us. The atmosphere of the restaurant, filled with the aromas of finely prepared seafood and the warmth of shared fellowship, provided a fitting setting for this occasion. As we reflected on her long years of sacrifice, Proverbs 31:27 came to mind: “She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.” Our mother has exemplified this verse throughout her life—diligent, steadfast, and unyielding in her responsibilities, even when it meant being absent from home. Though her approach was strict, and her presence often limited by the demands of work, the lessons she instilled in us were lasting. Discipline, perseverance, and reverence for God’s provision became the hallmarks of our upbringing. As Proverbs 31:31 reminds us, “Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.” Today, we honored her not merely with words, but with hearts full of respect for the unseen labors and sacrifices that secured our future. At 88 years old, her life testifies to God’s sustaining grace. Isaiah 46:4 declares: “Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you.” We see this truth fulfilled in her strength of character and her ability to inspire generations despite the challenges she has faced. Surrounded by children, she stood as living proof of Psalm 128:6: “May you live to see your children’s children—peace be on Israel.” The evening was not only a celebration of longevity but also a recognition of discipline, sacrifice, and faith. In the end, the gathering at Foong Wei Heong was more than a birthday dinner—it was a solemn thanksgiving, a testament to a life of labor transformed into lasting legacy, and a reminder that the Lord has indeed blessed us through our mother’s strength.
