syfc's staff and volunteer day.
very packed. started at 11.30, ended at 9 plus.
was a day well spent lah.
talked to some people that i've not talked to in a while, and also got to hear from Mr Albert Lee and Mr Christopher Tan.
also had sorta group discussion session with Mike Yong(like my friend lidat sia..)
all these lao jiang. wah.
come to respect them greatly. the kind of life that they live. a real testimony about God's goodness and grace. and how they are willing to give their lives up for God to use. by God's good pleasure, he chose them.
chance to reflect back on the past. how the work has developed over the years(50 for syfc).
think also about my involvement here. like a roller coaster ride from day one almost 5 years ago. a lot has happened in such a short span. almost like a dream.
and thinking back, i really give thanks. how i came to know this crazy bunch of people.
how purpose and truth entered my life. how i have come to learn about a God who IS THERE, abot what true love is, and to experience true friendship, and to be able to give true friendship. this is all just wonderful.
Thanks be to God.
but you know? as i sat among the staff and volunteers today, enjoying their company, learning from the bible, singing hymns, laughing and praying.
the thought that "someday this dream will end" always stayed in my mind. however much i enjoyed what was happening, it was not foreign to me that something better is in store for us, this is just a glimpse.
the best is yet to come.
when we all~~ get to heaven...
