Today was a great day. Because of the "deal" that was made between Tracey, Sam and I, I attended Campus Crusade for Christ (CRU) after my regular Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship meeting. It was a totally different kind of service in CRU, I was in awe by the number of people attending CRU. I will definitely be joining them again next Thursday.
After CRU, I joined the crusaders at Calvary church to just hang out (just like the Chi Alphas hanging out at Good News). That was when God spoke to me through a girl. The conversation that was started between this girl and I was impromptu.
We started sharing our "roads to Christianity" soon after we introduced ourselves to each other. I shared first and it was all about how I came to know Christ, getting baptized, and so on. And then this girl spoke. She shared about her life that was, to me, like a drama that could have only happened on TV. Growing up "without the love of parents," she said, was really painful for her. She was abused and neglected since young. And her life was just so miserable with her biological parents cheating on each other, and then she was sent to a foster parent, having to separate with her siblings, just so much.
As I was listening, I started realizing how fortunate I am. I grew up in a family that has love. I don't want to feel sorry for this girl. It is because I know that God has saved her. She had came so far, got to know God as her heavenly Father, a real parent to her. She is really a strong girl.
I kept thinking about this. I was so affected by her story. It was just mixed feelings. While Tracey was sending me home at the end of the day, this song was played in her car. I just think how true it is: "In Christ alone, my hope is found; He is my light, my strength, my song."
So, I youtubed it and I just want to share it with you here. God bless you, beloved readers.
