Witnesses.

The typical NS man, when nearing his ORD date, would have the opportunity to clear offs and leaves. Sadly, due to the fact that I'm in a operational unit, and with the coming of IMF on the 11th of September, I'm forced to expand my leaves in June.

Today I went street witnessing with Anthony. At first I was full of apprehension; I haven't really done a street witnessing in years. But deep down, I knew I had to do it. The time for talk is over, now is the time to act.

So armed with nothing more than faith and a wavering courage, Anthony and I roamed the vast expense of City hall, but there wasn't a soul in sight whom we could approach. In the end we managed to talk to this Indian guy named Kumar.

Now, I was careful not to enter into a theological or intellectual debate. I was there to tell the truth, that's all. And the truth we proclaimed. And to our amazement, he was willing to accept Jesus, and even expressed his desire to come to church. Deep down, I was really happy, and thankful that God has blessed us with this rewarding experience when we cast aside all our fears and doubts and simply obey Him. But yet I also sense his emptiness, and the need for a saviour. Thank God for this opportunity, He led us to Kumar with words of hope and salvation in Jesus.

Like what Reinhard Bonnke exclaimed as a young boy, "It (the power of the Holy Spirit) works! It really works!". Today, I too join him in this great declaration.

"It works! It really works!"
