Death knocking on the door...

Was really tired by the time i came back from airport...

Heard a terrible news that my grand aunt is in a critical condition and that she may pass away anytime...

She was my deceased grandma's best friend.


Dad and Mum are rushing down now to see her for the last time.


Initially, i din think much about it....it just felt like 'Tis happening again....exam time again."

Then i struggled...'is she a christian?

If she is not, then shouldn't go and tell her about Jesus?'

'But i have exams and there is no way i can finish my preparations if i go....no way...coz i am already stressed out trying to browse thru everything...'


'But this, it is for eternity, will you give up your grades for the eternity of someone else?'

'Will You? Will I?'

'No, i can't do much...' i rationalised.


And then i said, 'Do ya want me to go?'


There was a pause and mum asked if i really wanna go? Then dad said there was no space...there was a sense of relief but not peace, and then mum said,



'She has become a christian.'


And you can never imagine the sense and flood of comfort i experienced...that was all that matter...that she is eternally saved and returning to the bosom of the Lord.



And for me, it was a test. Not scoring an 'A' for my readiness to share this gospel to those around me at the expense of myself, my career etc...


But it was a small step of faith when i popped the question.



It was a wrestle and an opportunity for introspection.


I told mum, 'Then it is ok, because if she is a non christian, then before she passes off, i need to tell her about Jesus. But Thank God, she is returning home.'



I wonder if mum knew wat i meant, but i noe she will, in due time she will.



Thank you God for this experience.




Another person you are removing and bringing home, another soujourner brought home to the Father.

Eternity in the presence of the Lord outweighs all. Have i realised that enough to move to action?
