When does the sun set?

If I have to fix all problems before the sun sets, before doing spiritual things, then when is the sun actually setting? Or is it literal? Like... I got until 8pm today?

My dearest brother

There has been one instance when I thought that you'd no longer be alongside me. But I don't think it hit me back then.

Dude, this is really scary. If I'm not standing in the middle of Westfield at the moment, I think I'd be crying.

Even though I came to Sydney before you did, I don't think I can recall much memories where you weren't there in the background, even if you were just in the very far background.

You were there when I received my first calling. Best MC partner ever, we didn't even need scripts to work together. We planned the camp together, and we are still planning another camp together. You turn my nonsensical ideas into workable and practical games or plans. You are the first person I go to with anything related to youth or camps.

In September, on that Saturday... You are the best comforter ever, yet you don't really say anything. You shoot my hyperactiveness down when it's appropriate, just to bring my feet back on the ground. But you're always game to go all in to have fun when it's appropriate too.

The email you sent, to me personally it was really necessary. It's not about who's right and who's wrong. It's about having the trust built up enough to share about anything, and voice out any concerns. When you were shot down, I felt so disheartened. We actually did the wrong thing, and you were there to tell us, like what prophets did back in the days.

How can I ever lead youth without you, and plan the camp, and plan games, or plan programs. I can't picture BHCAC without you, at all. Don't do it... please... you're the best brother I got...

Where's everyone?

Why are you all over there, and I'm still here?

3 years ago, I was treated like a noob. Everyone came to nurture me, to make sure that I became someone like yourselves. Everything you did inspired me, every single one of you, but especially you. You shone like stars, just your presence reminded me of Christ. You guys bring an atmosphere that was sooo attractive and it just drew me in.

Did I not milk that period enough? Now you've moved on to nurturing other noobs, moved onto other projects and plans.

3 years later, here I am, nowhere near where you used to be. I'm still here in the same spot, needing to be fed rather than feeding others. Except you no longer feed me.

I really enjoyed Sunday, it brought back so much memories of when I dined with you guys so much. Why don't I do it to the people coming after me? Don't they need the same things I needed?

Why are you leaving me? You were the first person to take notice, the first person to include me. Your prayers had so much confidence, so much "heart" in it. The first leader to teach me what serving for God is, the difference between working in Big Group than running a school charity committee or something. You showed me what hospitality to brothers and sisters is like. You personified God's Gifts. You took on God's plan for you with gratitude, no matter how much the path seem to have changed - you compared Moses's journey. The way you took on song leading, the emphasis in prayer in practices.......

When I sat there at the Quad wanting to give up, when everything was too much, you came all the way and sacrificed a submission just for me. Who am I going to talk to now at uni?

When you had so much going on, and still sacrificed your early morning just to have breakfast to share with me, let me vent, give me Godly advice. Why are you going so soon?

I'm just being selfish, and I want to hog you all to myself, because I'm not ready yet. I always thought you'd forever stay here alongside with me.

Lord, why did You place someone in my life to play such an important role, and make so much impact, just so you can take them away to do Your other works? Can't You raise up someone else in HK to fulfill it?

What am I going to do now, in Sydney, with nobody outside of Church who picks me up and fights with me?

You are soooo annoying at the moment. Seriously.

I don't even know how to summarise my prayer point for you

It's amazing how awesome the timing was. I don't know whether you were genuinely late, or just wanted to avoid alone time. But I, surprisingly, really was stuck in traffic at a weird hour of 2pm. That worked out much better anyway, how much better in acting did we have to be if we actually did chat for an hour beforehand.

Dude, I knew something was wrong right from the start. 3 normally hyper people together, when one cheered, neither of us joined in.

Sorry I walked into yesterday with a bias, with unfair expectations.

I'm glad I did it.
How come it took us so long?
There were so many "yesterdays" that happened, why was The Yesterday the trigger to crack us?
You remind me so much of when I walked my lowest valley. How could I have not noticed?

Compared to everyone else, I always saw a barrier with you, too scared to attempt to crack you. But when I called you a peer, you called me a friend. Guess the barrier was only from my end.

Boy, there are so many people around you, who care and pray for you. You might think they lead different lives, and don't understand, that's because they actually don't. You're one jump ahead of the crowd. The hurdles in front of you weren't even meant to be for teenagers to jump over.

We're actually not alone.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

Nor will people around...

Praying small g prayers to our big G God.

I keep praying small g prayers, my excuse being... we can't pray prayers that we think don't align with God's thinking. How do I know anyway?

But... prayers are just conversations right? If I can talk big with friends then how come I have so much reserves when talking to God?

I seem to only pray requests that I had confidence in it happening already.

You of little faith, why are you so afraid?
