Is
Christmas all about Santa Claus, Christmas Trees, gifts, snow or turkey? No!
The significance of Christmas is the birth of the baby Jesus who was born in a
manger by the Virgin Mary and during His life on earth, He performed miracles
yet He was crucified but He rose on the third day! Amen!
In December 2013, God was very
gracious to me. It all started around October 2013 when I applied and was
accepted to go on a Short Term Mission Trip. God’s plan for me is always
perfect. He sent me to London to share the Good News with Londoners and to
partner with Woodberry Down Baptist Church.
I flew to London on Malaysia
Airlines and Qatar Airways. I was served with red wine aboard Qatar Airways.
Now, the wine reminds me of the gospel in John 2. Throughout my 14 days
journey, I managed to ‘visit’ Kuala Lumpur, Doha, London and not to forget,
Jakarta.
In London, the weather was cold.
Fortunately, the Lord has strengthened me throughout. The Lord also assigned me
to work with His servants from Bulgaria, South Korea, USA, UK, Austria,
Australia, Brazil, Hong Kong and Pakistan.
God is indeed omnipotent,
omnipresent and omniscient. He gave me different opportunities to serve Him. I
was able to worship Him on my flute, share the Good News to our ‘cousins’,
serve kids and take part in practical work such as cleaning and cooking.
God answered our prayers during Kids’
Party. At first, we thought nobody would show up but God sent 15 children. Then,
God gave us good weather during our Book Table. God even arranged for a Turkish
Meal in London for me and my teammates. And out of surprise, I could actually
taste Burmese food in London.
All in all, God is good all the time
and… I have decided to follow Jesus and there is no turning back! Please
continue to pray for me as I serve Him daily.
