Day 5 / 191109

Today is chillax day! We went for the elephant ride in the morning followed by the river rafting which was all extremely fun. Then shopping in the afternoon before we went back to get ourselves prepared for the Chapel Service.

It was cool! More then just cool. Their praise and worship was lead by their own youths from Care Corner and it was nice seeing the children enjoying themselves in the presence of the Lord. I was very encouraged and still am.

Actually before service began, we interacted with the kids a little and we got little gifts from them like friendship band and small drawings. It was all good until the thought hit me: WHY THEM? I felt like crying. For them? for myself? I think it was more for myself. They're so brave and strong. Their presence and life is emitting a light so bright that it causes you to think about your own. What have we to complain about?

I went up to the chapel and prayed while walking around, getting myself ready so that the Lord could speak through me. And just mere minutes before service began, the Lord did change what I wanted to share and He guided me along. Not sure about those that were there but I got touched by what the Lord shared that night through me.

It was on the idea of US BEING A FAMILY having Christ as the head. That we should work together to function as ONE BODY. Even as Pastor Ricky was translating for me, he told me that I hit the nail on the spot and he added a lot more and I was grateful that the Lord have spoken through me. I am in awe even as I pen down all these.

Well cause we didn't want to end it with a sad mood with us leaving we threw a little party with games and all. Oh before that they performed for us and it was beautiful! =) Uncle Peter taught all of us some lessons about game that night as he led the game. He was great with the kids. I believe there's more to learn from him and I look forward to more opportunities!

And they ended the night with prayers for us and giving us flowers as appreciation! =) How sweet right?
