This was a wonderful Sunday. We had Deaf Church at ADC and it was one of the best services. The Deaf had the opportunity to go to a spot of choice and talk to God. It was really something beautiful to see them dispersed around the centre spending one on one time with God. The Word was good and the the worship was awesome. In the end, everyone was glad they came.
I am happy to report that it was also the first day that the Deaf were allowed to drive the church van!!! We praised God for it!!
Nearing the end of the service, I received a phone call. Fred whose real name is Krishna (see previous post) had died... I reported the news to the Deaf and everyone was a bit shaken. I know that this news cut at my heart. I could not help but wonder if things would have been different if we had reached him in time. I was dazed and I felt that he deserved to be loved and to belong and I thought that we may have been able to give him that opportunity. I wanted to be his friend, hear his story, look into his eyes and let him know that there is a God who loves Him! Yet I dear not question God's authority.
Despite Krishna's death, I was happy as I always am, to spend time with my Precious-es!! I have an even greater zeal to meet the Deaf woman who is friendless and lonely. My prayer is that she too, like so many Deaf, will come to know God's love, acceptance and peace! My God us as His beacon of hope and channel of love.
