Wow, it sure IS cold today. The temperature displayed on my laptop was -1 degrees Celsius. You can even see the smoke puffing out from your mouth when you speak or say something. Sister Carol gave me a 'wake-up call' yesterday morning to inform of their arrival today. Sister Ming Ming from Newcastle also came over to Glasgow by airplane when she heard of Brother Joe and Sister Carol's coming. Praise the Lord for the members of the Body. Brother Joe and Sister Carol drove up to Glasgow from London, visiting a few broadcast listeners on the way. Brother Joe gave us a brief insight on how the broadcasting started in London, and how many believers were brought into a deeper enjoyment of Christ through these broadcasting. It was quite enlightening to hear how some people started listening to the broadcast. For instance, there were those who were fascinated with the 'strange' accent on the broadcast while driving (Brother Lee, of course :) , thereby pulling their car over at the sidewalk to further listen to what is being said. And through this, many were enlightened by the riches from the ministry and brought to a further enjoyment of God's word.
And being a typical not-so-good host, i never thought of preparing anything for the saints! Well, it was embarrassing, of course. Still can't believe we let them walk all the way to a Malaysian place to eat (15 mins walk from our place) and they even treated us for that meal. For us students, 15mins walk is of course, a piece of cake. But it's definitely not as proper for these older saints to walk so far, although they said "yea, 15mins walk is fine~ It's one-five right? Not five-O. haha.." However, while walking we still talked and laughed on the way, so it isn't too bad..
However, through their visit, Stella brought up that being with the saints just has that sort of different feeling. I told her, ya she's right. It's nice being with the saints. It's just a different feeling than being with others. You can feel the difference. Truly. And once again i thanked the Lord that we all have Christ within us. We have this same Person within us. Although outwardly we may look different, speak in different accents, have different preferences. However, it is the One within us which pulls us together. Lord, i thank You that I am given this privilege to Love You, and to have this Faith in You.
