bid farewell to aunt mary

aunt mary has gone back home with the Lord on last sunday afternoon.

i witnessed her last breath.

the last gift i gave her was this year's mother's day...

the last meal i had with her was 3 mths ago, when i bought breakfast n had it together at her house...

2 weeks ago i told anne i would like to visit aunty but aunty said she was tired and inconvenient...

last conversation with her was through smses.

she always amen with the prayer i made in my smses...

indeed, she has never complained bout her sufferings fighting against cancer for almost 20yrs.

thomas made a photo slides show and presented it during the wake... all the memories i had with aunt mary appeared in my mind... her cooking, her gentle spirit, her encouragements... still remembered she made me 2 dozens of yellow roses bouquet for one of my birthdays... how i miss her.

however, God is indeed good. the peace, the love and the joy He has given us... how wonderful is this Creator. when pastor jerry was sharing the gospel during the wake, i believe this is the time to sow the seeds and i truly believe the seeds will grow... and very soon, aunt mary's siblings will know that our God is the true and living God.... amen!

bid fare well to you aunt mary, see ya in heaven... show me your wonderful garden (aunt mary loves flowers, i believe she has a big garden up there!) when you see me k :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

friends, if u r reading this, pls remember that if one day i go home with the Lord, make sure during the wake service will have the following, make it a gospel rally for my beloved friends and family who dunno God yet...:-

(1) a full band for praise n worship (my favourite songs For all You've done - yay the intro drums part! and How great is our God (the drums...)... my fav chinese songs 展开清晨的翅膀, 永远尊贵... (TnT can in charge of this... victor laoshi pls play the drums loud..hehe)

(2) a drama... (yea my teenz girls, u can consider "Everything" Skit, pls present an impactful one to touch the audience!)

(3) testimony sharing , yea pls tell my families n friends that my greatest wish is to see them being saved.

(4) sermon... yea, pastor will in charge i believe... :P

(5) oh ya, altar call!!! pls close ur eyes when pastor ask u to do so... my friends n families very shy one...k... if u look at them, they wont dare to raise their hands...

yea i want a gospel rally for my wake, or even for my wedding ceremony, if i got one... people need the Lord... because these 2 occasions are the only ones that my families and friends will sit down quietly and pay attention to it... musnt let go the opportunity to sow the seeds in their hearts.

And this is the only one thing i desire - to see them saved.

my 4th mission trip

曼谷暴动，曼谷机场宣布关闭，又听见WNK Team 的旅程被取消的那一刹那，我的心不由自主地震了一下。不知道该怎样面对已经预备好的心情，很担心去不成清迈了。从来不曾对时事新闻有任何兴趣的我，破天荒一直守在电视旁如此关切泰国的时事动态，的确难得！

28号的晚上，并没有收到任何关于清迈暴动有关的消息，我们一行46人于是浩浩荡荡地启程往清迈飞去。。。我相信神他为我们开了这条路，他必看顾，保守我们，让我们平安地去，平安的回来。

这是我第四次参与短宣，原本觉得没有什么事可以难得倒我，不管是演戏，分享见证，折气球，一人带一班小孩上课，玩游戏，唱歌，带领敬拜赞美，甚至是讲道，我都尝试过，没有什么可怕的。可是神却叫我看见我的不足，让我清楚地看见我需要进步且学习的地方。慧勤对组员的耐心与信任，体恤传道的心，为神而释放出对人的爱，是我得好好学习的。真的，每一天我都学习到不同的功课。

我们 这一组被分配到“满乐福”，慧勤就领着爱萍，淑仪，嘉曦，杰林，俊刚，家乐，俊斌和我一共9人到这个新地方去。

从新山到满乐福，我们一共耗了16个小时，才刚刚放下行李，匆匆吃了晚餐，我们就得分成4小组，3组被分配到不同的地方负责带当地的小组，剩下的一组留下来带少年团契。我和淑仪到阿卡村庄的小组分享见证及信息，我引用诗篇125来鼓励教会会友对神坚定不移的信任。

当地的天气没有想象中的温暖，早上和夜晚的温度大约介于10c，中午太阳直射，皮肤都烧焦了。。。 第二天我4.45am 就从温暖的被窝爬出来，6am主日学就开始了！小孩们准时地抵达教会，他们对神是如此的渴慕啊。接下来，成人主日学，礼拜。。。我和俊斌被派去附近的邦撒教会，负责主日崇拜。我分享关于约伯，大卫，保罗在苦难中对神的信任，神信实的基础个性来鼓励大家。邦撒教会仅14 人，算是个被离弃的教会，可是负责人张明山传道却因为看见当地人的需要而顺服神的旨意，继续服侍这个教会。他也在去年开办了小学，目的就为了带领更多的人来信主。设备简陋的邦撒小学，有100多名学生，可是只有2间厕所，就因为神在动工，不断地供应，才能持续下去，有神，凡是都能！

满乐福这个教会之前因为受到前负责人的伤害而分裂，李秀萍传道接手时根本没有办法使整个教会团结起来，加上她不识阿卡族与拉湖族的语言，没有能力与人沟通，就秉着对神的顺服，她开始了每天4am 的晨祷，神开始改变了整个满乐福的属灵气氛，越来越多人开始回到教会，现在的8个小组都有各自的组长，李传道才能够有更多的时间去探访当地的非信徒。满乐福是个坚硬的土地，当地人非常迷信，还拜不同的鬼以求平安，李传道更因此没有放弃，每个村庄她都至少去了十几次。

我们也到泰语小学教英文，传福音。我和杰林带二年级班，可是平均年龄大约是11，12岁，所以之前准备的教材，游戏都不能派上用场。两个小时的时间有点长，真的是吞剑，喷火样样来。圣灵感动我在结束前与大家分享我以前每每考试作弊，可是相信耶稣后我改邪归正的见证，班主任告诉我说班上有很多学生每次作弊，怎么说都不听，我分享的对极了！感谢主。

我们也到晨曦会福音戒毒所去。我以小舅的生命见证来与众人分享。小舅16岁吸毒，染上毒瘾后还感染了爱滋病，因为接受了耶稣，生命如何被翻转，在专心服侍神时却被世界诱惑而远离了神，去年他病发，去世时只有40岁。借此提醒已信耶稣的，必要抓紧每个经历神的机会；而还没信耶稣的，更不能放弃认识神，让他翻转生命的宝贵机会。

去到村庄探访，除了鼓励那些冷淡退后的基督徒回到教会，我们也为许多身体有病痛的村民祷告，传福音，神让我看见他对人的爱，如何地不离不弃。神也让我发现见证的好处，对不同需要的人分享对的见证，我们每一天所经历神的经验都是美好的见证！

在邦撒办的圣诞布道会，我们每个人都豁出去了！都尽力做到最好，俊斌的演技真的很棒！不管有多少人信主，我们已把福音的种子撒出去了，接下来就是神的带领了。。。

贴心的上帝，在整个旅途中，不管我们心里想吃的，他都一一供给！火锅，咖哩，roti kok，大鱼，想什么就有什么~ 就连我们要演戏 “Everything”的道具都不缺！ 在附近的一间破旧不堪的小杂货店里，它只卖一种玩具，那就是—枪！哇，神真的太厉害了~哈。。。

神更借着陈老师如何顺服神的旨意，完全的摆上，离开舒适的环境，放下手上的一切，从香港这个大城市嫁到美塞（泰北的一个小山区）和马老师一同服侍神，作神的工给我很大的鼓励和看见。神是如此的配得，信实。。。再一次提醒我要完全顺服及为神摆上手中的一切。。。

另一次的短宣，另一次的体验，让我更深一层的认识神，体会神的心意。 。。满满的收获！
