Eeeeeks! I feel the draft coming....or is it winds of change?

I feel so foreign here! Haven't been blogging for quite sometime.

This week has been a whirlwind tour of strained concentration and emotions...literally! So much things happened. Firstly, received news that we're moving our office with no new premises in sight....talk about walking by faith! And to add to the twist, we have to leave by 10th August....alas! our office equipment are very much at Blk 924 and taken root. looking at all the things we have to move makes me drained out and flat. So the work has started.....looking for movers...get the office air-cons out of 924....to packing every little item that is straddling on every corner of the office. Help us O God, won't You have mercy on us?

Attended a funeral cremation of someone I didn't even knew this afternoon. Ps. Gordon conducted the service at the new Crematorium in Mandai. He wanted me to go and see how he does his part in conducting such services for non-believers. It's strange to be in such a atmosphere, highly-charged emotions so alienated from where I was standing. Knowing that the deceased committed suicide due to intense stress in her work makes me to remark that people worked themselves to death. As all the family members and colleagues grieved over the deceased, I can't help but think whether the deceased would go to Heaven as she hasn't even give her life to Jesus. Much to think and ponder about!

God of Heaven and Earth, judge of the living and the dead. I pray that You O Lord, will show Your compassion and mercy to the deceased, that even as Your children stand in the gap to pray and intercede for all, that Your love will continue to pour forth even to the love ones that are left behind and to those who attended the cremation service, that You touch them withYour everlasting love, remove their hardened hearts so that they will know that there is a God who cares even for one like us. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen!
