Lord, Please Be Near
Came back from the ch retreat today. I must say that it was a rather relaxing camp, as compared to other camps I've attended. Mainly eat, sleep, workshop, free time... Cosy number of attendees. Glad to have known new pp e.g. P's children, and played with our 2 babies - Ruth and Vicky. If anything, we had fun through the game sessions - formal and informal. Well, we will need wisdom to proceed from here...
Actually, my heart and mind have been more pre-0ccupied with other business. My grandma who's living in KL is critically ill and in hospital. Her condition supposedly got better last night, and so we kinda decided to make the trip to visit her on Thur, after setting work arrangement here. However, we just received news that she is not exactly improving, and is in great pain. So, we will travel down to KL tmr morning, regardless of work... My heart is in a state of unsettlement ever since we got the news. How I wish that we could fly to her side now!
If I am already feeling this way, I can imagine the anxiety my dad is experiencing now. I can almost feel it in the air, although he is not verbalising it. My dad is a very fillial son and I know that he really, really wants to be present with granny now. God, please please preserve my grandmother and have mercy on all of us.

It's really sad to hear such news...
But do think of how you can bring the gospel to her, and the rest around, that they may have the chance to repent before He comes again.
It's no point prolonging our lives in a sense, if we still end up in hell after we inevitably die, isn't it?
