Joshua-Day 6

My classmate Barathan's Dad passed away early this morning. His father is a Warrant Officer in Singapore Armed Forces (SAF). He collapsed after running during the 5BX in camp. Uncle Oliver was supposed to meet Bara for BS after school but he received a message from him saying, "My dad passed away." O LORD, I sincerely pray that everything will be fine. Please be there for him, yeah?

Updated (11/07/10):
A year has passed by and by God's grace, JM and Bara are in the same Polytechnic now. Though Bara has stopped attending BS or perhaps even believing in Jesus, God still loves him. It's indubitably difficult for Bara to ever believe in Him again. Three weeks before his Dad passed away, Bara prayed to accept Christ into his life. And then his father left. God does not promise us explanations but He knows our pain and always loves us.

"O LORD, please use your servant, JM, to reach out to Barathan at NYP! Amen"
