(July 7th) Extremmmmely Crazy for Jesus


God has been great with all of us in Hope Malacca.

When I look up at the sign board "MALACCA HOPE PLACE", I felt very happy.


Our church has finally moved to a new building and 6/7/08 was the official opening ceremony. The yellow and orange balloons were put up in front of the main door - thanks to Ken. Cars parked neatly on the parking spaces. Cherry make sure the food and drinks laid on the table neatly and no one should touch it till lunch. Sin Lu ushering the ushers to line up at the little door with smiles on their faces; they warmly welcomed the visitors. David prayed as he walked from one end to another. Richard was at the PA System; making sure the mike, cables etc are working and in proper position. The others talked with the first time visitors and also having great talks with certain members. And Fiona? The projectionist.


The event was normal. Oh, for your info, I was asked to share testimony on that very day. I was ok at first. But realizing that it is a special Sunday, there's no word to describe how I felt that moment! I was.. I was so relaxed. The "stressed up", "nervous", "panic", "upset", "angry" emotions - you name it.. they're all gone. I was sooo un-panic. Thank God for that. Because He has guided me for these past few months and I was ready to share what He has done in my life. After sharing, I just found out that my words flew everywhere in the church and my grammar, tsk tsk.. bad. I got the paper right in front of me and I told God that I won't read from the paper. I reminded myself too many times until I forgot. But there's one thing I was very proud of myself - I looked into their eyes. I had eye-contact with them.


And my testimony was boring because I could see Myles blur and clueless look *grins*
Ireen was smiling all the way! She was very encouraging!


The food - SIMPLYYYY DELICIOUSSSS! The African brothers and sisters always so energetic when it comes to cooking. I'm so inspired and probably I'd learn how to cook some dumplings and mashed potatoes. Lemo made mashed potatoes with green beans. SIMPLY MARVELLOUS! I didn't know that he made them. I had 2 servings of it.


Again I should say this, GOD HAD JUST LEFT ME BREATHLESS.


I simply love Hope Malacca.
