Chasing the Dragon

Recently a brother passed me a book titled Chasing the Dragon, and when I began to read, I got so addicted to it.
I am just so amazed how a person can gather so much faith and do Laopa's will.
Live among the drug addicts, in and out of opium dens, gambling dens, prisons... just to share Christ with them.
Testimonies after testimonies of people completely free from their bondages to drugs and many others. The best part... is when the lord's boldness led her to talk to the triad leaders and share Christ with them. And the Lord's faithfulness became so evident in her life that each person she shared to , he/she was touched by the Lord and received Jesus into his/her life.
Every single page and sentence is filled with touching testimonies of how prostitutes, drug addicts, triad members were transformed and became the Lord's witnesses. I felt so encouraged by this woman's passion to serve the poor.
She simply took with her $10 in her pocket, took a boat and served among the most rejected and broken hearted people. Year after year, she faithfully ploughed and sow into the many broken hearts for , Despite countless persecution that she faced, she perservered with the Lord's strength.
Never a moment, the Lord failed to be with her and grant her REST.

One word simply summed it all. The Lord's Grace is sufficient for her!

Sufficient to drive this woman to continue to suffer with the poor and live in the worst living conditions,
Sufficient to stand in the gap for the broken hearted and testify His goodness to all.
Sufficient to be faithful and continue to perservere despite persecutions.
Sufficient to extend grace and compassion to the rejected and abandoned lot.
Sufficient to rise above difficult circumstances.

All Because He died for her on the cross..... and blot out all her sins! This gave her a chance be so alive again!

Out of a sudden, I just felt so blessed so blessed that I knew her God. And I simply amazed by His unconditional and sacrificial love for me.

This love that found me at my deepest pit. This love that will never fade away even though how much I have let Him down.

How can I simply live a day without Him?

Blessed are the poor in Spirit for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.
