Great Day of Revelations

I begin to read "The Heavenly Man" today. I read just the first four chapters and I already felt so moved by the works of Brother Yun. In fact, just reading the foreword alone is almost enough to move me to tears, which I didn't because I was on the MRT. Haha.

Sometimes, I really wonder why I don't seem to have any best friends who stayed with me young. I do have people I used to call best friends in the past, but as time pass, I called someone else my best friends.

Sometimes I wonder if there is anything wrong with that and that was until Pastor mentioned that we have to keep moving on from where we are and as we move on, we will change the company we hang out with. Also, friends are there to see you through different periods of your life.

The foreword for "The Heavenly Man" was written by one of the brothers who went through thick and thin with Brother Yun in the past. They were arrested and tortured in prison. Because they were locked in different cells, they even shouted to each other down the corridor to encourage one another.

That brother then mentioned that they have since drifted apart because God had called them to move in different directions.

I am sure many people have not even went through what these two persons have experienced and yet when it is time for them to part, the two of them were still willing to let go and choose to obey God, leaving behind the many wonderful memories they had together.

As I look back at the friends I have made, I just realise that my best friends just change as I move on in life. In fact, the quality of the friends and friendships improved over the years. It is really interesting indeed, that I am making friends with more awesome people. Perhaps, that is a good sign that I am growing.

And so just today, I just knew that we have gotten "A" for both the presentation we have presented! Praise the Lord! Haha.

I also chatted a lot on W372's tagboard this afternoon. Chloe, Cordy, Mei Hui was online! It is amazing to see the Tagboard so busy. Haha.

After that, I went to Bugis Street to get some new jeans and top. Meihui came to joined me and also bought a pair of jeans. She got it at a pretty good deal cuz I know the shop owner pretty well. Haha.

Meihui was almost late for her bible study after trying out and buying the jeans. We rushed down to church office as fast as we could. Had many interesting conversation with her. Haha.

Later, I went down to City Hall to meet Carolyn who offered to help out with COPE. As it was still early, we went down to Toa Payoh central and ate some really nice Chwee Kuey.

We move on to Toa Payoh meeting area to register the elderly for this Saturday's health screening at AH. We were also joined by Guan Him, one of the ministry member. The elderly were very active tonight. Haha. Had some very interesting conversation with them.

In fact, this Saturday, Carolyn will also come to help out at COPE. However, I was called back to AH to help the hospital with the health screening. So I will get to see the COPErs on Saturday but I will not be with them... It will still be fun but it will never be the same when not serving with them. Haha.

Carolyn left to meet her friend after that. Guan Him and I went to meet Jacelyn for dinner. She happen to just finished bible study and was on her way home, to Ang Mo Kio. I knew very well she will yet to have dinner as she expected to end her work late today. Haha.

We ate at Ang Mo Kio central S11. The prawn noodle there is really nice! The soup is very thick and fragrant and the chilli isn't too hot but it enhanced the flavour of the noodle.

Had some interesting talks with Jace and Guan Him too. Later took the MRT together with Guan Him and shared quite many revelations with to each other.

Yes. Today is very much a fruitful day. Haha.
