Today is my turn to do ushering (together with my parents and Aunty Poh Gek), and for this week, Pastor Alexa Ho is teaching to the community. I wonder whether she did actually combine this week's agenda together with the recent events going on. (Remember about our dear member Uncle Heng Lee?)
For this week, she recapped of how they have prayed so hard to have him healed and to have his strength back again, only that the situation gotten worse till the point of his death. People may have a misunderstading of this : If God is a healer, why must he let Heng Lee to die? Why must we suffer together with him like this?
Now I'm not saying that God doesn't answer to prayers. He does, but it is His decision that matters. That is why He is in fact a mystery.
That reminded Pastor Alexa of the similar case back at CBC Sea Park, where one of the members also suffered from colon cancer for 6 months. She also ask the same question, which is difficult to answer. Amazingly, her mother treated Alexa and Pastor Reynold coldly at first, saying that she will only believe in Jesus if her daughter is healed. But, after one holy communion at her house, the mother asked about it, and realized that they too had gone through this suffering. So, she accepted Jesus as her personal savior. Savvy huh?
Anyway, enough off-topics. XP Overall, I believe that even if we tried our very best to ask God to heal Uncle Heng Lee, in the end, it will be His decision to either heal him, or just allow him to come back to Him. What's important is that we should move on, and stay strong together with his family.
That's all for this week. Next week is Easter Day, so stay tuned! =D
