Because God showed me again that He is the master weaver, and that the labour for Him is never in vain.
J was saved!

after reading the entry, See Yeong told me that he was actually quite close to him! once, he even took him to NUS to inspire him to study! Uncle See Yeong is the best! =) But because SY is currently stationed overseas, it was hard for him to reach out to J. i tried to link him up with some youth, but it was hard coz they didn't know each other, and it was left hanging like that... waiting...
but God is faithful, unforgetful and hard at work! Seeyeong came back to sg for the weekend, and by a series of god-orchestrated events - "Mom’s flight delayed – no atm card – make atm card at tampines – remembered kids in tampines – brought them to club at circuit road " , he met J!! And from there, he chatted with him and arranged to meet him for lunch the next day!
On Sunday afternoon, i received a call from my son collin. he told me that J went to Youth Service and got to know Jesus as Lord!! Wow!! and now my son is gonna mentor him =) *proud of you man!* 儿子作爸爸了！Take good care of him oki!!
And thank God for people like See Yeong! People who would truly care and love and reach out, and not treat kids and youths like "jobs"!
and it is such a personal message to me as well... just the day before, i was rather down and struggling with ministry issues, discouraged that i don't see fruits or growths... but thru this, i know...
- true to His Word, "your labour in the Lord is never in vain."
- we're not "called" to be great, to be the greatest harvester/sower/teacher, but we're called to be faithful, to be obedient, to love. Then God'll orchestrate the rest.
- God's hand is at work - even when i am not aware.
- we may sow, but God makes all things grow!
