aN UmBreLla with hOles

Went to church today to help in the traffic control for the carnival… The weather was quite good initially. However, after about 20mins into duty, there was a sudden HEAVY DOWNPOUR... So, James Ong, our IC went to get umbrella for my partner and me…

After about 20mins into the rain, I could feel parts of my shirt was wet… The umbrella does not serve its purpose at all…. Then, I felt water dripping through the umbrella… WHAT!! To my surprise, I saw a few holes in the umbrella!!! Argh…. Oblivious that there was a few more umbrellas, I just stupidly endured with “hole-ly umbrella”… At the end of the downpour, I was almost completely wet!!!

Fortunately, the sun came out and eventually dried me up…

Other noteworthy issue of the day:

One of my friend visited my church’s carnival today, on the rational that she felt that God wants her to be there… She went to talk to a few strangers, including Gurmit Singh… Though I initially felt weird that her, a 20-year-old person attending a carnival catered for kids…
Anyway, a word of exhortation for her: What seems illogical to man may not be illogical in the heavenly realms… And, my friend, I salute you for taking a step of FAITH to do the ‘illogical’ upon prompting … This is FAITH!!!
