Days at Kota Tinggi...

I realized that there are a few things that I have learnt about my young adults and myself...

I missed my old man, but what I really missed about him was his influence on me, how he had loved me, how he brought me up in the word of the Lord when I was young, how he allowed me to grow, fall, and he never failed to pick me up, that was the greatest of his love to his sons. the legacy that he had as a pastor in his growing up years, was never mine to carry and follow...but it was for me to grow in a different matter and contributes to the kingdom of God...

the greatest of a man was his influence, the greatest of a man was his ability to challenge his people to greater heights and polishing others' weaknesses and develop his strengths, the greatest of a man was his love for God and his people, the greatest of a man was his willing to serve his people, the greatest is his passionate for the word of God, prayer was the key essential in the ministry, encouragement and edification gives a totally different dynamic to the minister, the greatest of them all... is one who walks humbly in the dust of the Rabbi.

Through this trip, I remember how one old man inspires my heart for mission and the word of God. He challenges all that I believe over packs of peanuts in the past...

Old man are wise when it is treasured...I wished to have more in my life...
