I am about to leave the cafe soon but I thought before I do so, that I blog a little.
It has been a fruiful time spent in Ngee Ann City Coffee Bean after I went to have my knees checked at the hospital. The doctor did a scan on my knee-caps and he has found a considerable portion of both knees healed. This affirms the healing that I received during the Young Methodist Leaders' Conference (YMC) two weekends ago. Hallelujah!
I asked the specialist whether I could start running again - his advice was to lay off for a while and let it recover further. Well, I shall heed his words because I remembered the preacher mentioned at the conference, that though God has brought about healing that one should not be stupid to aggravate it again by being too impulsive or impatient. :)
The specialist was surprise to see my knees recover so fast and he asked me whether I have been faithfully taking the glucosamine capsules. I confessed to him that I have not been an obedient patient - the consumption of this medication has been irregular. I shared with him about the healing ministry at YMLC and he gave me a smile upon hearing it.
Anyway, I have been spending the time at the cafe preparing for the Youth Ministry (YM) lesson that I am conducting this Sunday. It was a late request by the YM Coordinator but I accepted it anyway as the topic is one that is close to my heart and I have been practising it throughout the past one year of my sabbatical.
It is about living my life as one called to be different and I have been doing that in many circumstances and situations. I hope in sharing what I have learnt and also my testimonies, my younger siblings-in-Christ will be able to acknowledge that it is possible to live differently and at the same time make an impact in someone else's life, without any one branding them as weird.
I only completed the introduction but I am contented to leave it as that for today. It has been a joy preparing the lesson and I am looking forward to the next few days as I attempt to complete the rest, with God's help! :)
Oh yah, I got to know two tourists from Canada who were attempting to log into the free wireless access but found difficulty doing it. They were asking for help from another gentleman but he was using a Mac and was unsure how to help them. Though they did not ask me, I decided to be thick-skinned and went to their table to see whether I could assist. As they did not have an account to log on, I used mine instead and I was glad the access was successful.
I went on to do my work while they surfed the net. Just before they left, I was surprise when one of them passed me a drink of another Ultimate Ice Blended. They said it was a token of their thanks. I jokingly told them that with that drink, the usage of the wireless service is not free anymore. They laughed and explained that they needed to use the internet as they had to update their family members back home about the progress of their father's recent operation at Mount Elizabeth Hospital. He had to go for a heart by-pass and the surgery was a success.
Well, I pray Darlene and Johan's dad will recover sooner than later and that God will grant peace to their family members back in Canada.
I guess that is all. To God be the glory for everything that I have experienced so far! :)
