Some Sunday Church Stuffs...
I hugged Nick Vujicic at church yesterday!
He was invited by the church to do message sharing. I am truly amazed at this man who remained strong despite adversities. I know it is tough for him to concede to the fact that he will remain as he is for the rest of his life. But the strength and confidence in him really shows.
While in the queue for Nick-hugging session, I thought I was gonna say "God bless... And I think you are cute!" cos he did shared that he is praying for a life partner. But dropped the idea cos I thought it wasn't proper to say that. So I mumbled "Have a good life.." Then I kicked myself. Stupid. What kinda hug-message is that?
That was me trying to be wise and nice, but failed miserably.
But some thought did came up to me though. While he was up on stage sharing.
"What if he is not a Caucasian? Would the response be different?" I have nothing against Nick, nothing at all. I just wonder about the human mind and heart. Or rather, the Singaporean mind and heart.
Worship was fantastic. Everyone was a part of the worship, everyone was in the worship. The spontaneous singing and clapping of hands made me feel at home. I think I am settling in more comfortably now.
