If I had a time machine now, I'd travel back to 2006 and give my younger self a big warm hug...
...coz she (I) really need it...
...but she (I) would probably reject it...
As I'm preparing for a short mission trip next month to Rangsit, Bangkok, we (the team) were briefed that we needed to prepare our personal testimonies. I recalled some major turning points in life for me during my college years in TOA, and I wondered if I could find any specific details or dates of those times. Well, apparently there wasn't much record of those exact moments...but as I read through some of my posts, I was surprised at how much hurt and pain I was carrying back then (self denial huh?)... My heart ached with compassion for my younger self...
And that made me realize how much I've changed since the past few years...how much healing had taken place on my bruised and wounded heart...how I've been slowly molded from grumpy to gentle (never in those days would I have imagined other people to describe me as gentle...neither would I have used that adjective to describe myself)...
Without Your gentle touch, Jesus, I'd still be a very grumpy person today. <3
