Yes! Once again, it's a Teachable Moment! This is something I observed last Sunday and I thought it will be good to share this story with everyone. The owner of this story is Quo Si En! I entitled this story:
Mother's Tongue or Alien's Tongue
During one of the mission debrief back in Singapore, Si En shared on one thing that the Lord has spoken to her. She brought up a point as in why we get so excited and enthusiastic about learning Khmer when we ourselves are not keen in making an effort to stay and listen in the Chinese Service. Even as she brought up this crucial point, I am sure it's more than just a 'closing speech.' On one Sunday, she was not on worship duty and could choose to attend the English Service but she chose to sit in the Chinese Service. I really praise God because she really walk her talk.
I am very much encouraged by her efforts. Most importantly, I see an obedient heart which the Lord delights in. And I truly believe that the Chinese Congregation Ministry is not declining but is going to grow. And to all those who sense the passion for and the needs of the Chinese Congregation Ministry, take a step of faith and let the Lord start shaping you.
(Let me clarify 1 thing is that I am not saying that those who chose to go to English Service is doing the wrong thing.)
