Five
days have past, today my family put her into ground. Inside me is a
missing person to her grandmother. On the journey to work, have
connected on Skype and was asking mum for details to find out every bit
of this day. Mum said it has went fine, the rain came soon after
everyone left, few sad tears have been shed. She will be missed, her
presence and her cooking are what I miss the most. Her Hainan chicken,
coconut pancake, pork pau, morning Tai Chi, grocery shopping with us
etc...
Finally
she has gained the eternal peace, staying away forever from our
everyday weakening human body and of course the bustling traffic in the
World which are still gripping us all today. Rest in peace my dearest
grandma.
This day last week she was longing to go, on Skype I saw her frail and old woman figure that was telling me the sign. This day five months ago, she met me and them, she has waited two years to see her great-grandson. She met him and Joshua met "po-tou". She was very happy, we called that a fourth generation which was what I really hoped for.
Where is ah po going? Some say to find ah gong. Actually do you know she has been with the Lord, I know she is in this place with all the one who loves the Lord, of course my ah gong is there too. The last few days my mind was at rest since I know she is there, the paradise, the happy waiting place, no thirst, no fear but full of grace. Thank you Lord for taking care of my ah po.
Luke Chapter 16 verse -
19 Now there was 1a certain rich man, and he clothed himself in apurple and fine linen, making merry every day in splendor.
20 And a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, covered with sores
21 And longing to be asatisfied with the things falling from the rich man's btable; moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 And the beggar died, and he was carried away by the aangels into 1Abraham's bbosom; and the rich man also died and was buried.
23 And in 1aHades he lifted up his eyes, being in btorment, and saw Abraham from afar and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he called out and said, aFather Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my btongue, because I am in anguish in this cflame.
25 But Abraham said, Child,
remember that in your lifetime you fully received your good things, and
Lazarus likewise bad things; but now he is comforted here, and you are
in anguish.
26 And besides all these things, between us and you a great 1chasm is fixed, so that those wanting to pass from here to you cannot, neither from there to us may any cross over.
We don't see them now, how are we to go on? Would be a series of love pouring out like cherishing each other as the Lord is doing. Caring and greeting each other is what we will do, seeing each other is what we will spend time to. Remember our family especially on the special days. The great gift of family life is to be intimately acquainted with people you might never even introduce yourself to, had life not done it for you. (K.H.)
All in all, Jesus is Lord, He cares for this family, this family need You.
