Who will help them?

I was sitting at Tampines CPF Macdonald one night, just chilling and relaxing and enjoying my favorite ICE COLD ICE TEA, doing some reflection on my LIFE and FUTURE.. Then suddenly a man walked in and he caught my attention.

By his appearance, I can see that he is 'abnormal', very different from the people around him. He is in his mid 30s, slightly obese, had an operation around his mouth, bald headed. So I just observed him as I know God is going to speak to me...

So he found himself a sit and sat down there unpacking his bag that was loaded with food. And the food that he brought out was like bought over a few days and kept it in his bag for a few nights kind. And anyway it was Bak Chor Mee...

So as he started eating the bak chor mee in Macdonald, the managers came over and stop him from eating and tell him not to eat there. He didn't respond in a way that I thought he would by complaining and retaliate.

He just sulk with disappointment, looked like a child who got disappointed when he was promised something and but it was not fulfilled kind of look. (You know what I mean?)

He started doing funny actions, taking out his wallet and took a stack of bus tickets and start smelling and rubbing against his nose.. Suddenly, I felt a grieve that is not my own. And I heard God spoke to me saying, "He is one of my son, whom I have created in my own image."

After that, I decided to go get a drink for him and I went over to ask him if he wants a drink, and he just nod his head. I realize he cannot speak because of the operation that he had on mouth that leave a scar all the way to his chin.

I told the manager to get him a drink and I will pay. She responded that better not buy any thing that is too sweet because he got diabetes. She said also he had been coming here often and just to sit there alone and sleep at times.

At times he will just sit there urine on his pants and they have to clean up for him. So I got him a diet coke and just talk to him a bit but all he can do is to nod his head..

I walked back to my seat, feeling helpless.. saw the need of 1 person, yet I cannot do anything about it. An abnormal person, but also someone whom God created in His own image, He died for on the cross, He called him His son and loved him... all I can do is to buy him a DIET COKE?

Out from this helplessness, there also came a drive that rises from the inside. I told God in my heart, I want to earn a lot a lot a lot a lot of money...I want to work harder.. I will not let setbacks to discourage me from achieving high places in my workplace...

I want to do more than just buying a DIET COKE! I want to meet their needs, I want to help them by providing for them, giving them a place of refuge, a home, a family, a place where they can be joined back with our Heavenly Father whom He call them sons and daughters.

I want to build a building around the world, that will bring all those who are in need, all those who are poor, all those who are helpless, orphans, widows, abused, abandoned, sick, rejected, out casted. Providing for them, helping them to find God and His love. Giving them a hope and a future...

I desire to live a life not for myself, but for others who are in need. A life totally dedicated to continue what Jesus did on earth...

Who will help them? Who will be Jesus' hands and His feet?

Working Hard,
