homecall of mdm goh chut eng

thank God for His mercies on this 75-year-old lady. mdm goh only decided to put her faith in our Lord Jesus and by the grace of God, was baptised on 18th oct 2005, just before the Lord took her Home to be with Him. i thank God for the opportunity to play the piano at the vigil services on all 3 nights as well as at the funeral this morning becos it has taught me much. i've come to realise how selfish i was when rev ong first approached me on wed morning in my class, to ask if i could play for all 3 nights. i was unwilling to commit myself becos it would mean i'd have to forgo any appt tt comes along later in the week. but i thank God for changing my mind after the 1st night. i was surprised, and pretty disappointed to see tt so few galileans came to comfort the bereaved family...as a result, i saw ppl like auntie joyce, auntie may san, auntie elsie & mommy coming down almost every night...well, like what rev ong shared with me & auntie joyce: our work for the Lord will not be in vain. this just reminds me of our duty as beacons of Christ.

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see our good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Matthew 5:16

only the late mdm goh chut eng, her second son & daughter-in-law are in the fold of Jesus...but i pray tt thru the homecall of mdm goh, the rest of the family would come to know the Lord as their Saviour. one thing's for sure - mdm goh had placed her faith in Jesus & she's now up in heaven, safe in His arms, rid of all the pains & sufferings of this world...and the only way for the rest of her family to see her again, there is no other way except thru Jesus...

those of us (like the aunties who came, cher, nelson, alex, josiah) have done our part by giving the tracts, showing christian love by coming to comfort the bereaved, and in fact, auntie may san presented the gospel to mdm goh's 5 grandchildren on the last night. i pray now, tt the Lord would work in their hearts and if it's in His will, move them to place their faith in Him...
