The spiritual journey of Xiao Guai…

(May miss out some details or may be wrong at some points)

--------------------------------------------------------

Let me share his conversion story.

In the vicinity he lives, Jesus is still a pretty ‘huh?’ thing. Majority of the people have never even heard of the name Jesus before. However, somehow, he kind of heard of that name, when he was primary 5 or 11 years old. It should be from an aunt. And the aunt even gave him a bible. And of course, being only 11 years old, bible is like nonsense. Thus, he threw it aside. Till now, he is still clueless about Christianity.

When he went to secondary school, he was badly influenced and was led astray. He was violent and vulgar. It was only until upper secondary, there was a sudden peace and joy in him that changed him. He had no idea why the sudden change.

In addition, he is also very unsettled throughout his life since then, even through his college life. He felt that something was amiss in his life. There seemed to be a void in his heart that can never be filled. There is a kind of hunger that he could not describe. However, since he had no idea what it is, he let it be.

After his college, around age 21, he was attending some outside classes. It happened there was once he forgot to bring his book, and ended up sharing with this man who is 40 plus. At the end of the day, after dinner together, they even exchanged contact number. Interesting…

The best part is this. Not only did they exchange contact, the man invited him to his rented house. Xiao Guai got to know the family. It came to a point, after just a few months, the man trust Xiao Guai so much that he gave Xiao Guai the key to the house. He is free to enter and leave the house as and when. What the…

That was the rented house. After the old hag had his new owned house which is pretty nearby, he shifted in. Xiao Guai, had the keys to his new house as well. And at times, when it is too late and it is too cold, Xiao Guai would just stay over at his place.

Then came one faithful day, after spending the night over at his place, he decided to bring his kid for a jog in the vicinity. Along the way, he saw a sign that reads ‘Jesus loves you’, hanging outside a church. He had a very vague reminiscence of seeing it somewhere before. Then he remembered the aunt telling him that phrase before, or maybe had read in the bible before. He then walked in. There was a surge of peace and satisfaction in his heart. The void is filled. The huger is fed. He sent the boy home and came back again to get the sensation. He then asked one of the members of the church about this very feeling.

After gaining the knowledge, he received Christ there and then. CLAP CLAPS!!

Isn’t it amazing how God arranged everything just in place? From Primary 5, all the way to providing him a weird old hag that allows him free access to his house, then happened so nicely that he saw that sign on that very day at that place. God is definitely divine.

That is not all. There is still a load of stuff that he shared with us about that very night. However, I am too tired to share the whole thing now. And I guess I would feel lazy to type it out the next time. Ha.
