Be a blessing and be blessed

Be a blessing and be blessed

by Michael Yohanes

I was part of a mission trip to Cheroh that took place on the 21^st to 27^th of November 2011. If one sentence could summarize everything I learnt during the trip, it would be this: “Be a blessing and be blessed”.

Be a Blessing

My job during the mission trip was to teach the orang asli children English, so I blessed them by doing just that. Furthermore, the Cheroh mission trip members showed them that we love them by showering them with affection, attention and love. And I can tell you that if God had not called us, we would not have been able to do so since we would not find it in our hearts the willingness to sacrifice 7 days of holidays just to go to Cheroh.

Personally, I was called by God when I came to realize that the Christian orang asli people are among some of the most persecuted Christians in this country. One of the orang asli children in Cheroh further confirmed this to me. Because those children are Christians, their friends in school often mock them by saying, “You’ll remain poor as long as you remain a Christian”. Imagine if this happens to us. I personally have never had such difficulties and I can choose to be a Christian without any dire consequences awaiting me. Thus God called me to give these children hope so that they would not be crushed under persecutions such as these. One response I received from one of the boys is really one that we all should learn. He said, “I don’t care if I’m poor in this world, as long as I’m rich in the next”.

Be Blessed

Secondly, “be blessed”. It’s actually really hard to explain the blessings I received from them. No words can do them justice. The orang asli children are really an innocent, funny, gentle and very straight-forward bunch with no hidden motives at all. They are gems in this modern day. The same can be said for the workers there. I became close to some of them and I really, really like them because they too share the same traits as the children. In short, the people there are the kindest bunch of people you will ever meet.

I wish I were a professor of the English language so that I would be able to sprout out grand words to explain the blessings I received from them but unfortunately, I am not. Regardless, I would like to use this chance to urge all of you to be a blessing to others. Through this, you will find that in the end, you will be blessed too.

Praise the Lord for His goodness!

MCF's 1st-Ever Weekly Bible Study: Book of Daniel

Ever find yourself wishing you had a more structured quiet time amidst all the assigments, classes and random food trips? Longing for an in-depth Bible Study that's close to home? Look no further! This semester, the Monash Christian Fellowship is proud to announce that registration for its first ever Bible Study is open!

This 12-session bible study on the book of Daniel will be led (via video!) by world-renown Bible teacher Beth Moore, who serves a worldwide audience through Living Proof Ministry. Her lively expositions of the book of Daniel provide valuable insight into what God has to say to us, Who He is, and how we can glorify Him through living lives of integrity.

Details:
When? Mondays, 6-7.30pm beginning in week 2, Semester 1, 2012
Where? Multifaith Centre, Monash University Sunway Campus
How much? RM38 for the original workbook (original price RM45)
How do I sign up??: Comment on this page and SMS Jenna (0173615250) so she can reserve a workbook for you :) In your SMS, include your name and email address to receive further updates.

Bible Study Structure:
Each weekly session will begin with a 30 minute discussion of the week's homework, followed by a 1 hour video session. The workbook contains 5 days' worth of questions to be completed personally in the week leading up to the next week. Don't worry, there aren't TOO many questions, and the effort will yield lasting rewards. :)

About the promotional video:
Beth's Texas accent is pretty strong, but once you get past that you'll find her sessions to be both humourous and inspiring. The video shows wealth and fashion because the series is about denying the image the world tries to give us, and embracing the image of Christ-likeness instead. :)

A video to watch!

The boy and the bunny

2012-01-09T02:05:00.000+08:00

By Jenna Loo
There was once a little boy whose father owned a small farm. Although it was so very small, the boy thought the farm to be the best place in the whole wide world. He made friends with the grumpy grey donkeys as they poked their noses at him through the wooden bars of their stable, and fed the horses carrots as they were saddled up for riding lessons. Though he played frequently in the stables, his absolute favourite corner of the farm was the bunny enclosure, which was run as an attraction for visiting tourists.

The bunny enclosure had a hundred bunnies of all shapes and sizes. They could afford to rear the bunnies as the daily stream of visitors would buy the feed from the farm to feed the bunnies by hand. The boy didn't have to pay, of course. He loved watching the bunnies hop about their daily affairs. He loved bunnies so much that his father decided to give him a baby bunny for his very own.

The boy was delighted. He carefully fed the bunny milk with a baby bottle until it was weaned off milk, then prepared a special mix of carrots, oats and seeds for its daily meal. He brushed its fur each day, and wiped its paws whenever it had been hopping around in the dirt. It was the best-loved bunny on the farm.

Two years passed during which the farmer's family experienced hardship after hardship. Many of the livestock died of disease, and the stream of visitors grew less and less as times were hard. The straw that broke the camel's back was when the boy's mother fell gravely ill. The doctor came to the farm almost every afternoon, and left every evening shaking his head. Bills and medicines raced each other in piling up, and out of necessity the farmer began selling the donkeys, then the horses, then the cows. Eventually, all that was left was the bunny enclosure.

With a sad heart, the farmer called his little boy to him and told him to say goodbye to all the bunnies, save one. With the exception of the boy's own special bunny, the other bunnies were to be sold off to a local diner which had rabbit stew as a lunch special.

Tearfully, the little boy stroked each of the bunnies behind the ears, and said his goodbyes. Then he hugged his own special bunny close to his heart, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, you're safe with me."
