Today, I went to see two elderly people with three sisters. The first one we visit was Stella's grandfather. Her grandpa is lying on the bed and unable to talk. Stella feared that her grandpa would pass away without knowing Christ at all. While we were there, we sang and talked to the old man. Because its closer to Christmas, we sang a song named "a present" to him in the middle. I thought he was touched by it because I saw tears. We are not sure how he felt and thought. But it touched me that he understood. Later, one of the sister said that my singing was like an angel and my prayer voice was soft and nice. Honestly, I don't know how to response to that. But thank God for the gifts of voice.
Then, we went to see grandmother of a sister. We had to speak Taiwaness, which I am not good at. She was tired when we got there. But before we left, she had smile on her face. And we all were happy because we had good time with her. She knows she is a child of God. That was wonderful. What a difference between two people we visited. One is full of hope and the other is not. I am glad that I am at hopeful side. Lastly, we all thought grandma is so wonderful. I am kind of scare to be with my own grandmother. Am I jealous? I don't know. But I do know I prefer to be a wonderful person when I grow old.
I will say to the prisoners, ‘Come out in freedom,’
and to those in darkness, ‘Come into the light.’
They will be my sheep, grazing in green pastures
and on hills that were previously bare.
They will neither hunger nor thirst.
The searing sun will not reach them anymore.
For the LORD in his mercy will lead them;
he will lead them beside cool waters.
~ Isaiah 49:9-10 (NLT)
