An interesting edifying conversation with my hairstylist!
Well first wanna share some very cool things i notice happening in shows and movies recently. I notice some biblical references from the recent movie Forbidden Kingdom which i watch on Sunday, a scene where jackie chan was dying and was saying that i wld rather have the desire to love then to become an immortal who do not have feelings. AND THAT is something special which God has given us all..to LOVE! Christianity is not like religions which we seek that enlightenment and become NOTHING and LOSE ALL DESIRES! Its all abt that desire to LOVE and to LOVE others!!! That special desire in our heart! Elliot and me turn to one another in the movie saying..WOW this show has biblical reference!

AND then...the other show Heroes today! a scene when the wheelchair black guy was telling Peter petrilli's mom that he see Hope in him and that he had this special compassion to love others unconditionally..AND... you know what ...that he had to sacrifice himself to SAVE THE WORLD... its like indirectly similar to the REAL SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD JESUS CHRIST!

And then the recent AMERICAN IDOL! in the IDOL GIVE BACK episode! There was 2 days where the Entire American idol sang the song wonderful song SHOUT TO THE LORD at the end and start of the show! and millionsss and millions of people watch it LIVEEEEEEE! seems like an awesome way of reaching out thru the media! And all this happen in just one week! amazing huh!

THE SPECIAL PART! (my conversation with my hairstylist)
After student comm session! lunch with nick and then HAIR CUT DAY!... anddddddd in my 2 yrs cutting at this hairstylist hse! today was the first time i actually had a real conversation with her bcoz she is more the chinese educated so normally its hard for me to converse with her. And i knew she was a Christian and she knew i was too. So everytime in the past she will normally talk abt church and God. And normally i replied a word or 2....BUT today.... my haircut lasted 1 hr instead of the usual 15mins BCOZ i decided to that this chance to talk more! And she ask me abt missions, bcoz she felt God's calling to her to become a missionary and she ended up sharing almost her life story of God's calling for her since few yrs back..and shes quite scared abt going full time into missions bcoz she need to leave her family and stuff..BUT SOMEHOW God is showing manyyy signs in her life, from books to pamplets on missions which was posted to her hse, and some she didnt even subscribe but it came! And many other incidents which led to that stong calling in her heart. She even shared to her other customers who had God working in their life in missions, like this person who is a missionary in china and who got persecuted and jailed even for giving out tracks there! and manyyyyy REAL life stories of the life of missionaries which she met. And it was so encouraging hear the stories of such GREAT faith people! And then she even shared with me abt speaking in tongues and although she comes from a presbyterian church, she shared how the Holy Spirit is moving now, and how this is now more open, and her sharing is quite similar to that of wesley methodist culture. And wowww! I learnttt so much! Even from a hair stylist! It wasss such a great time theree! Anddd its so encouraging to hear that her job of cutting ppl hair and meeting so many customers gives her a very good opportunity to reach out to soooo many ppl! =) PRAISE THE LORD! =)
