.. No more sorrow, No more pain ..
Yesterday I was startled, and very much saddened by a piece of news that I heard from a sister very dear to me. Her mum who was suffering from depression, committed suicide & died on Wed. This sister was holidaying in Taiwan, reached Taiwan on Tues and supposed to come back on Sunday. But she flew back on Wed late night.
When I saw her SMS and returned her call, I knew something must be wrong. Her mum's death was really something that I could not expect...
I teared. I asked God to strengthen her. And me. It was at that very immediate moment, I was reminded of this song by Chris Tomlin. I will rise. I wasn't even very familiar with the song.. But the few sentences just ministered to my heart...
I will rise.. when He calls my name.
No more sorrow, no more pain.
I am really looking forward to the day of His return.
In heaven. No more sorrow, no more pain, no more tears.
I happened to chance upon this short video posted in FB. CNN Heroes. Never heard about it before. But when I watched the clip, it blew me away. I went to the website & watched the various nominees, their lives are so so so inspiring.
While it disgusts me to see & hear about how the world is suffering because of evil-ness & sin, it is comforting to see & hear of the different creative ways that people are doing so that they can be a blessing & an impact to the world & society.
I can see Jesus in the works of their hands. I am really really stirred, comforted, inspired, encouraged. These people are indeed demonstrations of His hands, His feet, His love.
The work of Christ must be done, ONLY by His grace & through His grace. It can never be by human effort.
I am seeking for an even greater significance to my life. Life should not be enslaved by the culture of the society that we are in.
Let us be people... who will be a blessing to the people who are suffering today. Be His hands, His feet and His love. And I am really looking forward to the day of His return, so that the promise of no more sorrow & no more pain come to pass.
The Love of Christ - Hope of Eternity. Let it be in every heart......

.. Jehovah Rapha: He's our Healer ..
Went back to SGH for follow up over the last 2 days... Praise God my blood count is recovering well! He is indeed our Healer! :)
Met Prof Tan on Thurs.. He was the one who operated on me. The first statement he made when he saw me was, "So you are the one who made many people so worried that night"..
Basically he explained to me what happened that evening in the operating theatre... When they made the abdominal incision, and upon removing the fibroid, they were shocked to see lots of blood inside. They need to extend the length of the cut so that they can check the source of bleeding. Prof Tan was initially worried it could be liver rupture or something like that, but thankfully it was not so. So after checking, they could not determine the source of bleeding. And since the bleeding already stopped, they decided to just close up the incision, put a tube in my stomach to drain out the blood.
I lost about 1/3 of the total blood count in my body.. The bleeding most prob should be from the fibroid, could be some vessels burst or something like that. Prof Tan extended 3 more weeks of my hosp leave.. I was actually looking forward to go back to the office!.. Felt really bad that I have to be away for soooo long....
Drew some blood again to check on the blood count. Today when I met Dr Ong, the general surgeon, he told me that my blood count is recovering very well. :) Thank God for the tonics & fish essence & DOM I have been feeding on.. HAHA..
What an..... experience indeed.
Looking forward to be back, jumping & full of energy, to serve God and the people..
Indeed, 休息是为了走更长的路。。。
