Peimeng =)

okies!i am very tired but very happy too!
=)
parachute band concert is super fun!
i am so proud to be an on-fire hoGc youth.
and seriously when God says His ways are higher
His ways are truly higher!

and i enjoy mrt rides home with kelvin.
i think he is damn funny.

and oh i met peimeng!
goodness.
i must share her testimony of her.
she is so damnnn zai.

i was actually emo-ing that why people
who were on this race of faith with you
can actually leave.
they were like so on-fire.
just like you and me.
and when you see them in the past
you will think they will never backslide
and they did.
not one.not two.quite a handful.

and this girl called peimeng just came along
tonight after my parachute band concert
and mrt rides with calvin.

we just started talking about church
firstly i was shocked that she is a christian
i was even more shocked to learn how she fight parental objection
her father is a violent and traditional man
who refuses his kids to go church
but she fight and fight and fight non-stop
not just the father
it includes the whole extended family too!
but the Devil won the battle in the end
and i thought of feeling sad
wanted to encourage her not to give up
but you know what
she may not go to church
but her eyes just scream at me
"i believe in jesus christ as my Lord and Saviour"
i believe and i believe
and nothing
really nothing stop her from believing.
i saw that hunger in her eyes
and she says she will keep on fighting
because of what she believes

and you know,
she has nothing you know,
no great church,
no great family
but all i see in her eyes.
i just believe although i do not know why
you must really see her eyes.

and it just put in my heart,
people like her are the reason i choose to stick with God
through bad times
and why i do not leave easily.
i have to get more people like hers saved.
i have to have that fight that she has.

she makes me realise something
most of us really taken for granted
God's salvation and grace.

Amen.
