When I fall

Saturday, 2nd July 2008

I fell down from my bike, it’s not really painful but I enjoy people ‘sayang’ me after the fall J
I was carrying my laptop to my friend’s (turtle) house to watch a movie and to surf the web, because there is Internet access in her house. On my way there I tried to turn up to a sidewalk(in Westlake), which is slightly higher than the road (see pic) normally I would have been able to ride up straight without stopping, but then maybe the laptop was too heavy, I cannot climb the gap and my wheel banged into the sidewalk (or should I say got tangled?), then ‘BAM!’ I fell. I fell on my right cheek and my left leg was also injured, I didn’t realize the seriousness of my fall until my friend told me that my face was bleeding. Then I had bruises on both my legs and shoulder, I felt like someone had just slapped me real hard, it wasn’t excruciating pain but it was still pain lar. Good thing nothing happened to the laptop, or else I would have panicked. I was so touched when my friend (shu-huei a.k.a turtle) came to pick me up and helped me to carry my laptop, then when I went to her house she gave me some dettol to put on my face and on my knee, this made me more grateful to her. Thank God for this good friend, I pray that God will bless her, and one day she will get to know my savior which is the greatest gift of all.

When I fall,
I don’t need a friend to tell me that I’m clumsy,
I need a friend to lift me up and aid my wounds.

It’s not easy to find a friend to trust in; friends that cannot lift you out of a valley but can walk with you through it, friends that comfort you and not laugh at you, friends that don’t leave you because you are not interesting or good enough, friends that encourage, friends that pray for you……
I want to thank God for giving me such good friends in Kampar, but in the end there is no friend better than Jesus, for He changed me from the inside out, he make me able to rejoice in times of suffering because I know I can put my trust in Him, He made me strong when I’m weak, “for My strength is made perfect in your weakness”, only my God can remove my internal scars, only my God can do miraculous wonders, my God wiped away my tears and gave me a sweet to eat :-)
