Tears

It just never stop for the last few days.

It's reserved for myself, my husband, God and within my room.

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

Broke the news. It flows uncontrollably from everyone's eyes, including mine.

But what I heard warmed my heart greatly.

"In this place, I don't have to be somebody else."

"I don't have to be afraid of who I am and what I can say."

"I am always very proud of my leader. I go around telling people my leader is Yvonne. I know I am in good hands."

"I changed a lot and grew a lot here."

"From just attending CG as just another routine, to really enjoy one another here and looking forward for one another's fellowship."

There is just so many of those heartfelt words from these boys. It's the most moving sight to see all the guys tearing and saying the good and bad of the CG.

Even a new friend was very moved and challenged to want to do smthg for the CG in these last 9 weeks.

I know all of us are so heartbroken to know that we are supposed to disband by Dec if we dun multiply.

I know I have done what I felt I needed to do with these boys' lives. Now it's up to them to fight for one another. It's a tough fight. Half of them are having O levels. But I feel the determination in their hearts as they prayed for the CG. 

They have grown up. I have done what God has placed in my heart to do with them. It is enough. Just not enough for my own.

Dear Von,
I am very moved after reading your blog.
I sense the warmth you have towards your members.. a most endearing disposition towards your spiritual children.
I do wish that I can be more like you towards my members as well.
No matter the outcome.. Thank God you have loved them the way you had. You could have choose to do otherwise but you didn't... You have given them your very best... or even better than your best.
Like what Veron said, JIAYOU. The Lord knows the desires of your heart of hearts...
