A Funeral

The world is small when you compare the whole universe with it. A life is small when you compare the whole worlds population with it. But when a life is lost, is causes a lot of sadness in the hearts of many people.
Recently, my friend's sister passed away. I attended the funeral wake. It is sad to see the sadness that my friend feels. I can feel the sadness that he feels. It brings tears to my eyes to see him sad. I have known him for more than 10 years and he is a very close friend to me. When alone, we usually feel the sadness most. That is why when I am there during the funeral wake, I tried as much as possible to keep his mind away from the sadness that he is feeling, talking about old times and all the happy times that we experienced when we were younger. All the happy moments when we went for parties, when we had BBQ's and all the times when we made a fool of ourselves, mainly me making a fool of myself... haha.
I want to comfort him as much as I can but due to my work commitment, I am sad to say that I cannot spend 24 hours there. I am still tied with my commitment to my work. It is not always that I get to see him because he is now working in Brunei and already married and hopefully expecting his firtborn.
I also shared with him my experience in being able to accept Christ into my life. I really thank the Lord for being in my life. Praise the Lord. At first he is a bit sceptic about me being a Christian because I was a sinner last time. But after a while talking to me and listening to me, he finally accepted me as I am. I thank the Lord for that. I only pray that one day I will also be able to lead him to accept Christ into his life. Not only him but many more people that I know and will come to know in the future. Peace to all who are in Christ and Grace be with all of you.
