This is a very special day, people arrange many things to see the kitchen god off to the sky.
People believe that, the kitchen god know everything happening in the house, this is the day he returns to heaven to report and also bring the wishes of the family to GOD or Budah...
We never worship as almost people in our country.
But it was really special day, my oldest sister was arranged to invite 5 workers for the lunch, my youngest sister also was arranged for a large number of workers to have dinner.. This is the new organisation from Canadian overseer.
In the past workers never asking for a meal.
They just came to have the meal if the friends wanted to invite. By asking and appointing a date for friends serving a meal.
With some friends aren't convenient, because they are poor, some too old to cook, some others don't know how to cook a special meal for showing their highest respect to the workers.
Some friends in the countryside had to
borrow money for the meal (at least two
ladies in the countryside had complained
with me about their worry every time they
received the arrangement asking for workers'
meal). My older sister always worry every
time she was arranged because she wasn't a
good cook. (I had mentioned these things
with uncle Lyle one time).
In the past my family welcomed many workers
visiting and having meals with us, sometimes
more than 20. Very tired but very happy,
because we thought that we served God not
served man. But now they all turn back with
us, even my husband had stroke, many of them
even didn't ask any question about his
health. I'm happy now I'm free from these
things.
Yesterday my parents went to my house for
lunch. They wanted to spare the living room
for my sister serving the meal for workers.
(My sister house is small).
I cooked a special meal for my parents in
this special day, while we (my parents and 2
of us) nearly finished our meal at my home,
suddenly we saw uncle Hoa appearing.
We were so happy to see him returning. I
feel God know every least thing of His
people, and prepare for them. I have
reserved a part of the meal... and
immediately serving for uncle Hoa. Even he
did not ask or require, but God had arranged
every thing for him.
He told us many stories through his journey,
how people were thirsty to hear the Gospel,
how new friends gave their prayer, very
simple but deeply touched his heart.
We do thanks God for His care unto uncle
Hoa, give us big joy and a happy day.
