Lonely People...
Today marks the end of the third day of VBS (Vacation Bible School) We went to Shah Alam Water Park, quite nice lar the place, for kids. It’s rather rather small compared to Sunway Lagoon but its still a nice place especially when you have cute little kids bullying you haha. Today I didn’t go for any of the rides at all!!! The whole time I was with this cute little 4year old girl named Huay Xin. She’s just adorable, but the bad thing about her is that as if her lips has been glued together with Uhu glue, she just refuse to talk! But thank God after carrying her around on my back and wading in the pool she finally decided to speak to me, and I was so glad she opened her mouth haha. She was really cute, when the other youths want to carry her she would let out a high-pitch scream and only allow me to carry her, cute =) Once she told me she wants to go the toilet but she said, “Now I want go toilet but later I go I cannot shit shit” I was laughing like crazy inside haha.
I learnt that managing kids isn’t a really really easy job.
Today’s lesson for me was taught by little Huay Xin. She, like many youths in church are really quiet and doesn’t want to mix around much, no matter how long they have known you they still refuse to open their mouth. But if we take the initiative to talk to them and to mix with them, they would slowly open up. Little Huay Xin was really quiet at first and just refuse to open her mouth but after being with the silent Huay Xin for a whole hour she finally talked! And when she talk she can’t stop haha, she keep telling me ,”I want to go there, I want to go there. No I don’t want. Where is Jie jie? I want go toilet. I stomach pain.” And so on… =)
There are many people around you who are really LONELY and they just want someone to go and make friends with them and to chat with them. One of the main reason why people leave the faith? Because they do not have friends to talk to them and make them feel as if they are a part of the church. People wants to be part of the family, but what is a family if there’s no communications? What more the family of Christ? So you people should start mixing around from now on, STOP mixing with your own cliques all the time but go and make new ones. There are lonely people out there, go and change their lives.
Proverbs 27:10
Do not forsake your own friend… Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.
