26th May 2007

Ya, and today was the day that our practice paid out. So much for me to learn! Overall, it was a huge success. Ya, Doreen came too, as well as another one of my friend, Shi Yong. Though we faced many problems, such as the food being inadequate to satisfy the taste buds of many people, including my friends, the microphones busting out at the last and most crucial moment, me forgetting my lines, playing the wrong notes, etc... But at least the event touched the lives of many people, including myself. But oh vanity! How hard is it to touch those who have yet to understand! All I wish is that some day, they will...

We see the presence of God, as well as the workings of the Holy Spirit that day, which touched the lives and left an impact on them, especially on the elderly, many of whom their lives have changed more or less. How great is our God, unseen, yet as present as the air we breathe, but just as essential!

Jonathan is a very gifted actor... How easy does his emotions show, and how easy it overwhelms us! For one who knows him since childhood, I really still have got a lot to learn from him! I really respect his aspirations as well as his character. God has made every individual unique, but still knows them so well; even the exact amount of hair in our heads, he knows! And He loves us all, whether we choose to trust in him or not. Like reality, he exists, be it us acknowledging his existence, or to choose not to believe. He is God! The God of Abraham and Issac, of the Israelites, and of yesterday, now and forever! And He is my God! Our God! How great would it be if only the whole world could believe in something more than stone, wood, gold and carved images! Truly, the wisdom of man is but folly to God... Vanity of vanities yet again! That man would have turned from God, so many since birth! How I wish I could do my part to save as many people as possible... If only they could see the reason that I struggle and sacrifice so much of my time to tell them what appears to be a childish fairy tale to them... Oh, the irony!
