♥ Lynn Adele's Story
Living Testimony.
Before my YISS Everlasting God - December 2007, I was one of those typical rebels. Who couldn’t careless about people. The more they want to bug into my life the more i will show them they can’t, no matter what their purpose is.
Whether is for love, plain concern or any of that sort. I took them for granted. I was going through a series of emotions in me due to self centeredness and of course due to the situation that took place. I fell for this guy, vice versa and dated-ish.. We had our happy moments spending the whole of our ‘O’ Level period together and every other minute we’ve got. Weeks passed, both of us went through a series of emotions, I was having really high hopes for the possibilities between us- until it started to all fall apart. Things didn’t work out, and none of us talked about the situation, or what went wrong, at all. We just stopped talking and the next thing I know, he was back together with his ex girlfriend. Like how I expected it to be ever since we started drifting away from each other. I was utterly broken.
And naturally i started drifting away from God. I started having doubts about God, and I questioned if He cared about my situation or even love me at all. Because it was definitely ungodly of him to put me through all that, to be exact a series of it few times in a roll.
But this was ultimate because it really made an impact to my life and how i don’t quite trust people around me anymore. This really broke me, because if I cannot even trust that God will take care of my needs, who else can I trust in this world? And I was afraid that the people who are going to hurt me are the ones closest to me. I was emotionally wounded and Heartbroken.
(For those of you who can relate to me) I was forced- Literally, to go for Yiss. I know I was determined to not go at all. So much so for two months plus I’ve been saying No to people who have tried and they sort of gave up because of my stubborn character- Especially to my Godsister.. Apparently, there is this one person amongst who never give up on me. She did all she could to have me at YISS. Bugged me every week without fail, asked my sister to remind me and paste the YISS flyer on my Computer so i won’t miss it. Finally, came over to my place (uninvited) and talk me into it. Tears were shed and we were literally screaming at one another. Finally i asked, “Why is it so important that i go?!” ,
“Because babe, he is calling you , and after all these you’ve been through he’s got something special for you and I will not allow you to miss it.”
“ YOU ARE CRAZY?” i said.
“I’m Serious Babe.” She answered.
After much hesitation, i agreed. For whatever reason, She was jumping for joy, She was so happy. But i wasn’t.
The night before YISS was when I found out about their relationship. I was also one of the last ones who did. On the first day of YISS, he sent me a really sarcastic sms about how much he “loved” my latest blog entry about True Friends. He was positive that that post refers to him. He thought wrong. This added to my misery and it was good enough to spoil my entire day. I walked into CSC with a heavy heart and I burst into tears. I told God, I’m not here to search for who you are, because I know you and I know you have something specially planned for me. I told God that I’m here to find out who I am. And I am also here in search for You because I’m in desperate need of help, I don’t know why You’ve put my in this situation and I know that I cannot handle it anymore with my human strength. And I know that You have something specially planned for me.
During out pouring, God asked me to surrender it all to him before he can reveal his plans. Slowly I build my trust in him and surrendered it all. I found comfort in some of the service team members who prayed over me. It’s amazing how they were all once strangers. God brought be these incredibly loving people in my life once again. I told myself, this is it- nothing can take this love from God away from me but myself And, I am not going to let it go but bring it to people who needs the love of God in their lives.
I thank God for bringing me My ever loving facilitators (Lydia And Elijah), Godsister (Eunice) who never gave up on me and those who stood by my side without fail like how God wants us to.
They are my soul mates- they are not perfect, but they will always be perfect for me.
I am not perfect myself. Things happen because God wants to mould you into the person He has purposed for you to be. Like the saying goes :” if it doesn’t kill you, it only makes you stronger.”
He showed me who I am. I am not what I do or who I hang out with. I am what God brought me to this world to touch people’s lives. I found myself I am not perfect and he loves me for that.
For all the obstacles I face, he always reminds me that if he wanted to today to be perfect, he wouldn’t have invented tomorrow.
After my YISS, I’ve learnt that every one of us has a choice to everything. Even if you think you have no choice, you’ve made a choice not to choose.
Like they always say,” Anything is possible if you just believe!”
I’ve became more patient and learnt how to react to things differently now. I’m still learning and I will always be.
I’ve learnt also to appreciate and value other people’s opinions although they might be different from mine. I’ve learnt to listen and not disregard other people.
I’ve learnt not to judge, but accept people for who they are.
With all my Heart.
And I thank God for bringing me to this special community that I’m serving with, so that I can touch others like how He had touched me though the love of my friends and my Facilitators.
I've since, set my stand to serve the God with all I have. And I am very happy to see you guys stepping up and make the same difference that you've experienced one way or another to the people that are going to step into your life in near future.
Let's do this together in the name of Jesus.
As one Flamb-ily
Through the ups and downs.
And Lift up to our Mission in Hospi!
I love you Lambs. all of you.
You guys are my Happy Pills!
Thank you for stepping into my Life.
Merci Beaucoup, je t'aime!
(Thank you very Much! I love you! in French)
