Grace and Mercy flowing freely from the Throne

I am touched by God's grace on Friendship special. It has been more than a year since i am asked to help in directing skits. Hmmm... thank God for that cos I truly love to be in the role of directing. So when I first about there was going to be a skit at the Friendship special, I thought of volunteering myself to help out. Hmmm... haha due to some procrastination, i did not go to them.

On Wednesday, I received a msn from Candy asking me to help them in directing one skit for the event. Haha as usual i agreed. So on Friday, i took up the role. Haha frankly speaking i have the slightest clue what to do. However, due to my ID personality, it seems like i have the slightest problem. I just surrender and told God to reign.

It was not an easy task for me to handle because we only had one day to start and to end and furthermore i hardly know the casts who are acting.

But thank God He always never never fail to work for the good to those who love Him. Having to experience and witness so much of His faithfulness in these drama performances, I just know that i needed to surrender to Him and give Him full control over the whole situation.

Flashback... in 2002, when i had my first evangelistic event, hmmm i decided to write a skit on Meteor Garden but in an English version. So i spent tons and tons of time to watch the show and put together certain interesting scenes but yet with evangelistic content into the whole script. Really thank God for the creativity, come to think about it i also donno how i had the strength, tenacity and capacity to do that. I was involved from birthing forth the script, to directing and all the way to preparing backstage and logistics stuff. I still remembered those times of staying at Ah peng's place and do the sound effect with Esther for the skit. Dao Ming Si 's voice and all those fighting sounds...

Then in 2004, i had my second skit performance at TP international student cultural nite. Hmmm again, its bao ka liao, from preparing the script to all the way to acting and directing it. Hahah , all thanks to one whole bunch of actors who plough with me.

Then i suppose the most challenging ones were at Cambodia. On top of all those roles i have to assume, there were the intense spiritual warfare to fight and pray. But still....

Nothing beats after all the season of ploughing, seeing people raised up their hands to receive Jesus into their lifes and seeing actors' lifes transformed because of this. Yeah, perhaps that was a passion that God has planted in my heart. To use drama as powerful tool to reach out.

Yeah Drama not only can touch the people watching the show, but also people who are acting. I remembered all i did was to gather my actors to pray and ask God to reign. And it always work!
No matter how i want to plan it and try my best, nothing beats the actors encountered God themselves.

Coming back, as usual God's faithfulness was evident in the Friendship special. And my actors who were very apprehensive initially before the performance, all performed so well when they start to surrender to Him, the director of all. I truly believed the skit spoke to many youths out there.

Yeah through it all, all Glory be unto HIm and His grace sustains all of us.With that five loaves and two fishes( broken talents and dreams and broken spirit), we offer up to God, and He will always turn things around!

I encourage whoever is reading this, never give up on anything you are struggling, but hang on! Because if you go read the parable of Jesus fed the five thousand, something that touches my heart deeply is when after Jesus fed the five thousand, there were still 12 basketfuls of fishes and bread left. That only goes to show one thing, God's grace is more than enough for us!


All I can say, if God is for us, who can be against us?
