When the end is the beginning of something new

"Change, people, is something we can never avoid no matter how much we want to stay away from it. But the fact is, life is always changing. Being static basically just means you will be left behind. That is the nature of reality, time and... life. Whether we like it or not, we are governed by time which will, well, never stop until He stops it Himself.

From the first ray of the morn' to the intense blaze of the noon to the lazy heat of the evening to the hint of dark at dusk to the quiet night. These are merely some changes that come along with time; a cycle of time."



The day is 14th Dec 2011. It was the last CF meeting of the semester and was also the Christmas celebration day. So I offered to make egg sandwiches as extra food to go with the KFC that Ben was already getting. Funnily enough, deep thoughts struck you when you least expected it or in my case,sometimes when I'm doing big business in the toilet. Sooooooooo, the top part of this post was from those thoughts when I was making SANDWICHES.

And so, it was then, when it occurred to me that a few of the peeps are going off next semester to other campuses. Who you say?

Well, first there's Marvin. A man after God's heart. A responsible guy, a good companion and friend, an able assistant and most of all an available man (by which, I mean he's always there when you need something). I got to know about him when he wanted to start a new CF in campus. CF was already running at the time albeit a little low profile. But you could see his fire for God. Later he told me it was Moky who asked him to do it. Still, you need an amount of passion and fire before starting something. For that I salute you!

Then there's Cwin (it's pronounced as Jin and not C-win, guys, please). Somehow, I have no recollection of how we met. The only memory that is stuck in my brain is this: a girl wearing big, yellow, Nike shoes sitting in a circle with other CF members. God had a plan for her and His plan was to draft her into the committee together with Marvin. She's again a very good assistant and helper to me. She doesn't complain a lot and does things that she doesn't like to do. I remember making her wait at a KTM station once (I'm terribly sorry!) but she waited nonetheless. Even accompanied us to shopping after the looonng wait, with a smile and contagious laugh. ;)

I do not regret knowing these two wonderful people. I do not regret working and serving the Lord with them. It was a joy. The only regret I have is that we didn't really got off to know more about each other. But there're always time for things. :)

So, thank you, Marvin, Cwin. Thank you for your wonderful service and friendship. Thank you for the passion in serving and enthusiasm that infected the whole CF.

Like I said, changes are necessary but changes is what we must face. As you go to Kampar, you both will always be in our prayers, thoughts and hearts. Remember to continue serving the Lord there!

See you two soon. :)

p.s to Yean Lynn and Natalie, it's been a joy knowing both of you too! :) Don't forget about us here because we will not forget about you! Keep growing, keep the fire burnin' for Christ!
