There was medical work in the morning at Bakachang, which made me wish that I knew Khmer. It was a challenge understanding the villagers and getting them to understand me. But it was still a great morning, thank God for the work done there and for the response.
Boat to Bakachang!
The visit to the HIV hospital that afternoon was a bittersweet experience, I would say. It definitely wasn't a pleasant feeling walking around, looking at all the patients there and thinking of how much they have to suffer. But I was really moved by a couple of the youths who just stepped forth with love. I was so blessed by how Xiuying, Teresa and Melody shared the Gospel with one of the patients, and she accepted. It's just so amazing, how God's love knows no boundaries. What's even more amazing was the fact that God used an unbeliever to translate the Gospel for her. That was one of the most memorable moments of the trip for me. The love that was shown, the smile on her face. Thank God for the greatest Love.
That visit made me think about how there are people longing to catch a glimpse of the sunrise one more time, but here I am taking my health and everything else for granted, not realising how fortunate I am, not making full use of what I have.
And I wish, that it had been more than a spark.
Dinner at the casino was good. Even though we weren't dining in the midst of card dealers and Poker players, the place and food were awesome. Not to mention, the ultra clean and posh toilets. Ha.
The awesome view at the casino

Sarah and I are in the same class for AED107! It's too bad that the rest are in different classes and I really miss the Titans and the rest but it's already a big miracle, so thank God! :)
