This evening, we had a simple Christmas gathering and dinner together. We were particularly glad to have Michael's friends, Shawn and Wendy, join us. They are young working adults, originally from China and have been educated and are working in Singapore. They are bright and energetic and have a great future ahead of them. Only, they do not yet know the Lord.
Rosev and Joshua shared their personal testimonies and it was clear how God was evident in their lives. Kah Lin and Sharon led us in a time of worship and some songs in Chinese were specially selected too. Then, we went round to share briefly how God was good to us in 2008, and interestingly, in hindsight, as Joshua also commented, we all articulated different angles and perspectives on the reality and goodness of God in our lives that actually culminated in sort of a wonderful collective testimony and proposition to Shawn and Wendy, or perhaps better put, 'sown a seed in their hearts'.
Let's continue to believe in and tap into the desire and power of God to save. As we begin to contemplate on and pray for revival in our land and beyond, let us first start with praying for our loved ones and friends, including Shawn and Wendy, to come to the saving knowledge of our great and wonderful God.
