Few days before my mission trip, I saw my friend shocking blog entry. He blog that if his heart valve condition do not improve, he will only have five more years to live. The doctor is looking for possible valve replacement. This friend is another person whose birthday falls on 13th November. Yes it is another 13th November. This date is too special for me. However the sad thing is, the three souls that I know are still not saved. Life is so short on Earth, we are just pilgrims passing through this world. At the blink of your eyes, many years would have already past. Some things would seem like it had just happened yesterday.
This friend of mine is going through a lot of affliction, I really feel for him. He had stroke while he was in his youth; healthy and running. Nobody would think that he would have a stroke. He had at least three relapses of this illness. Recently, the doctor found out that he had some valve problem which will affect his heart. It makes me wonder why he had to go through so many things.
He was once furvent in church. However, he may not be His. Through the relapses, I was thinking God may be saying to him, "I am giving you another chance, repent ye sinner!" God may be giving him this last chance; only five years for you to make the decision to trust in Him. As I reflect on myself, God has indeed given us a lot of chance to repent but we just kept on sinning. Even for myself, sometimes I felt unworthy to serve Him because of the besetting sin that I have. Through this incident, I have rekindled the love for souls of man. The Lord is coming back very quickly, I must share the "Gospel-Good News" to people that I get in contact with before it is too late. May God help me!
