2 Thes 3:13
"Dear brothers and sisters, never get tired of doing good..."
Recent Sun was my stretching time...
about 11am, half way through the service i went out from Canaan Hall..
wanted to go to office and do some photocopies...
but the moment i came out, i saw an Indian talking to Aunt Su...
it seemed to be a heated up argument, so i stayed on...
after hearing the 'exchanged of words' i had some thoughts..
~ hmm, another trouble maker...
~ well, i need to settle him, how ler?
~ it's difficult...
but as i was having those thoughts, i felt God was speaking to me
"just be there, quiet and listen"
Though Aunt Su was handling him but stayed on...
about 5 mins later, the man stopped his comment...
i can't remember how but i kinda took over from there...
i also dunno how but he calmed down...
finally i suggested we have a cup of tea at Elim and he agreed...
after 30mins of talking, his attitude was totally different...
from grouchy and agitated, he became friendly and kinda happy...
i din know how did it happen but when i recall, i knew it was God...
He changed my mind, gave me ideas, helped me to be attentive...
i was glad that i made his day..
an elderly man come all the way from Kangkar Pulai isn't easy...
if i would juz judge him by that few sentences, then i'd miss my chance to be his friend...
i thank God for helping me...
helped me to see that life can be touched through simple gesture...
CASE 2...
same day - Sunday about 12:20pm, Lydia asked me to handle a case...
my meeting supposed to start at 1pm and i need to get everything done by 12.45pm...
so i have very limited time to it...
i actually rejected Lydia but she said really no one else able to do..
so i went...
then i met this middle age guy at church office...
initially i wanted to juz take down all the particulars so we can follow up later...
then i realized it's an urgent case...
suddenly my heart melt and really sympathized the man...
i know i can't do much but i felt for him...
so i patiently listened to his story...
and in the end prayed for him..
today i followup the case...
and i realized my heart cannot let go until i found some help...
thank God i found and finally my heart can feel a bit more at ease...
thank God for helping me...
helped me to see that life is more important than work...
God can use us to touch more lives, when we view them as...
- God's creation
- God's children
- precious gems to Him
God never grow tired ministering to us...
let us also not be weary in doing what is good, right & godly...
