Love Actually......afterthoughts
Really enjoyed reading Mel & Cheryl's entries, as well as Claris' on the OC blog. Think they write very well and captured the essence of the whole experience for all of us. I was more of an observer from the periphery but there was no escaping the fact that the Spirit was moving very freely. Personally, I found it very heart warming to see open hearts & hear the testimonies that follow from it. Indeed, OC has made a number of quantum leaps this year and it's exciting to have a glimpse at what God has planned for this vibrant community. Nothing short of life changing transformations I'm sure. All progress has to be tempered with the sobering fact that the awful fellow with the pitchfork is on high alert to inflict some damage somewhere somehow. It is, after all, spiritual warfare.

I had a power nap after coming back on Wednesday. Got a text from a dear friend I haven't seen in ages. So went to Double O (club off Mohd Sultan) that evening to socialise. Haven't seen this bunch in many years. It was slightly surreal to meet up again. It was a real throwback to almost 20 years ago when we were all on the brink of adulthood and leading a life of decadence in a country across the ocean. Some things have really changed.......and other things haven't at all. The conversations flowed freely and many laughs were shared. But at the back of my mind, I couldn't help wondering whether each and every one of them has seen the light.
