Go and Do

Initially I wanted to pass the journal that prepared to Sister Shiyu last Sunday, 3 February at Church, but she was already left when I came out from the President’s office.

So today after Church, I managed to pass the journal to her together with Sister Robinia. I thanked her for the scripture that she shared with me, and I have learned a lot from that and I testify to her that the Lord was sending the His words to me through her and reaffirmed about the things which He would wants me to do.

As we do not have much time to sit down and talk, I promised Sister Shiyu that I will WhatsApp to her then on the experiences that I have been through, and how her favourite scripture enlighten me in certain way.

Last night I shared with her about our family first temple trip and my desire to go to the temple again. I shared with her how Sister Anita favourite scripture had opened my eyes to the word of God, that I was touched by the Spirit reading and realize the meaning of 1 Nephi 3:7.

The Lord does not stopped His revelations there, but continuing flowing in to my life by sending Sister Shiyu to our ministering list. When I got to know Sister Shiyu shared the same favourite scripture with Sister Anita, I was kind of shocked and pondering the scripture 1 Nephi 3:7.

This really reaffirm on the things that the Lord wants me to do! It is really not a co-incident that these two sisters share the same scripture at this point of time. Both Sister Anita and Sister Shiyu were bringing the word of God to me, that it seems clearly to me that the Lord wants me to return to the temple, and I have work to do.

I was teasing Sister Shiyu that, even though she is just in our list for almost 2 weeks, but it is no co-incident that she was just ‘misplaced’ by Sister Peggy, our Relief Society President then to me and Sister Robinia.

I was pondering and thinking what was I thinking about the temple after I got to know Sister Anita’s favourite scripture, was my impression true? Then God send Sister Shiyu to me with her favourite scripture and it really reaffirm the thoughts or impression that I have is true.

I thanked her again for sharing her favourite scripture to me. And I indeed feel the power of ministering, because I have been strengthen by my ministering assignment sisters.

I shared with Sister Shiyu that, I try my best to write whatever thoughts and what I experienced, by doing so that is how I discover the things that the Lord wants me to do. That is the reason why I encourage sisters to write it down, because we would never know, the things we write would be the light that light up us when we need it the most.

Today I received Sister Shiyu’s reply. She is so happy to read and to know that her favourite scripture helped me a lot. She is being frank that she does have a lot of favourite scripture, but in the end she still choose 1 Nephi 3:7, and she believe that the Lord wants her to share it again to me!

I told her that, she is indeed beautiful angel that ministered to me. I shared with her a General Conference talk – O Remember, Remember by President Henry B. Eyring on October 2007.

I shared with her that, I started to write more frequently after I read this talk. And, writing the experiences that I have, bring me to remember Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love me and my family.
