In Jesus's Name, Amen!! Makan...
Really simple refreshments,
Kopi dan biskut...





An empty trunk...



The Sungai Limau Chapel





Simply living so that others might simply live...

Its 6 o'clock in the morning on the 2nd of April...
I woke up, hardly able to open my eyes.... yawn...
Anyway I read through my quiet time passage and kinda think through it in my 'sleep'...
Well, I continued to journal down my quiet time thoughts and went to bathe...
And these two took me 60 minutes ^^ hehe...
I did quite a 'long' quiet time cause I kinda sleep think sleep think ^^

Anyway, my dad and I left house at 7 o'clock and fetch Uncle Jana from Bukit Mertajam...
Uncle Jana is a retired NTV 7 photography crew...
So that morning my dad asked me to pray for the day...
I did...

Af first Uncle Jana was like keep on talking...
I being an extro dunnoe what to talk at that time yet...^^
This seldom happen to me^^

In the later part of the journey, Uncle Jana asked me about Jeremiah School...
He mentioned something about praising God by looking at His Creation-Nature...
I shared with him that we do that in Jeremiah School too...
Then we proceed to talk about diving...
Because he knows diving too...
And did some underwater marine documentations...

Well, when we reached the orang asli settlement,
I was still talking to him about photography...
It is actually a very interesting topic...
He also tought me how to use my camera...
Which I didn't know how to use when I was in Jeremiah School, YPC and Reunion...
Which is too bad... Sigh...
But then now I realised I got a 'boleh-tahan' camera haahaa...
Thanks to Uncle Jana...^^

Anyway, back to the orang asli...
We visited them to check on how they are doing...
Last year our church actually helped them built a chapel by the Express Way...
Its no a very big building...
But then at least they have a bigger place to worship God and fellowship together... ^^
The chapel was completed in December last year and is currently in use...
Praise the Lord ^^

We gave some of the things that we can spare to these orang asli too
because they are living a really simply simple life...
Its really and eye-opening experience
to see that these people to live in such condition
and still be content with what they have...

They live a quiet life,
No noise,
No vehicle buzzing around
except for my father's Nissan Sunny... (a really old car, since 1984)

After that short visitation, we had lunch and went home and I gotto drive... (which I hate because the Nissan Sunny max speed is only 130 km/h...
So slow man...
And the whole car and steering is shaking like nobody's business...

It was a tiring day, but its fun...
And fruitful^^
