Two special people celebrated their birthdays yesterday at the LifeBox Leaders' Camp in Caliraya. Sadly, I didn't come there. The Camp's schedule had a conflict with my pre-board exams. However, I did send them messages for their birthday, and even went up early as 6AM just to see them before they left for the camp.
Mark is one of those two people. He was the first person I met when I just started attending church. I was quite aloof and distant at first, but I eventually became close with him and now we're good friends. He's younger than me, but I don't mind, we're still brothers in Christ. He's very responsible and dependable, and he really steps up into leadership and loves the campus.
The other one who celebrated his birthday was Jalil. My leader. He's one of God's greatest gifts. My life wouldn't be like this if Jal didn't lead me to God. Jal was my witness. He helped me walk with God. He saw everything- from Day 1 of my attending at church until today. He's someone who saw how God moves in my life, and I will always be thankful to God that He placed Jal in my life.
He has the heart for discipleship, which is something I really want to develop too. It's a process,and how Jal treats the people he's connected to is inspiring.
Right now, those two are in the Leaders' Camp with the others. They'll be going back tomorrow, and it means one thing- a dinner with Jal tomorrow! We haven't talked for a month or two, so we should update each other. :)
And this was my message for the both of them. Happy Birthday!
