Moving....

A few people I know are moving on.

A few of them are moving back to Asia and a sister has moved back to the Father.

My friend and her family will be moving back to Asia to work so I was invited to go help them pack up and just spend some time with them. The first thing I did was to help them take apart a set of IKEA dining table and chairs. Ironically, I was the person who helped them put together this set of chairs and dining table. Aside from packing things and taking things apart, I had just a little time spent with their 4-year-old son and played with him a little. It was so nice to spent time with them and to help them out. They plan to work in Asia for about 10 years so we were all joking that when they come back from Asia, their son should be able to help me to put together their family dining set.

Another thing that has been on my mind was the death of one of my old friends. She has moved back to the Lord on Wednesday night after years of fighting her cancer. I still remember vividly the first time I met her when I first starting serving WCCCC. I remembered it being a cold January afternoon at Sunnyvale when I was about 27. For some strange reason, she had called me Jackie for the longest time. On that day, she was training us on how to come up with a 3-year conference focus and theme. She said a lot of things to us at that 2-day meeting and the only thing I remembered very clearly from her training was that we live our lives to worship God. In many ways, my old friend has done that with her life. She remained faithful to the Lord and kept worshiping Him until her last breathe on earth. I look forward seeing her again when I get to move back to the Lord.

How are you living your life to worship the King? What are the things in your life that are taking up rooms in your heart thus blocking you to worship the Lord full-heartedly?
