                                                              :  2006  :

1st January 2006, I've made a commitment to God  that no matter what it takes in the days to come, I'll still serve Him, no matter what. This year's watchnight camp wasn't as fun as last year's cause we only have one night there, but the service was just great, the presence of God was so powerful! Even it was just a time of prayer, I could feel God's presence so strongly that I couldn't hold my tears but let it flow out of my eyes. And the testimonies that the church shared, about what God has done in 2005, they've blessed me so much!

Left Golden Sands Baptist at about 1+, and reach home at bout 4. Immediately after unpacking, I followed mum to the cemetary to pay my auntie a visit. When we were at my auntie's grave, looking at her photo on the tomb stone, it just reminded me of the days that my auntie was still around. This auntie of mine, she's one of the greatest person and mentor in my life. She took care of me and my siblings since we were little, to her we were like her children cause she doesn't have any. Whenever we needed her, she's always there. My auntie, she's a really humble person. She lives a very simple life even though she's consider wealthy. She spent most of her money on others instead of herself. And one thing that I admire about her is that, she helps without complaining, she always helps willingly. And I remembered she told me that, its good to help others and when you help, don't complain, your rewards will be in Heaven. She has been a GREAT blessing and influence in my life, and my family as well. Even though at times, I took her for granted and being rebellious to her, her loves for me still remains the same, she shows a genuine love to just anyone in the family even my cousins! She passed away on the 1st of January 2001, because of cancer. Somehow, I just thank God that He took her home, I believe God saw that pain that she was going through so He took her home. Praise God that my auntie is now in paradise with Jesus! It has been 5 yrs since she left us, and still when I think of her, tears do flow from my eyes and regretting how I treated her when she was still around. I miss her so so so much! One lesson that I've learned here, never take a person for granted when he/she's still around, you never know what's gonna happen tomorrow. Love each other around you when you still have the chance.

After that we went over to UKM to visit Sandra and Shirley's grandma who has admitted to the hospital few days ago. Mum was just chit-chatting with her, and I was beside listening to their conversations. Suddenly she just started sharing her testimonies, and I enjoyed them so much. By listening to those testimonies, I just felt joy in me and joy that I know such a great and awesome God! When we were walking out UKM, passed by some of the patient rooms, watching the patient lying down on their beds, some in pain and some seem so lonely. These people just touched my heart, hard to explain that kind the feeling that I was having but I really have passion for these people, to get them saved and let them experience God before anything happen to them. This year, V2's planning to start a hospital ministry! Its a good chance! Hahahaha....
