Letter #2

阿公,
我还记得你每天会跟我玩跳棋。
我还记得我在小学时候,你会每天走到我学校去接我。
我还记得我小时候会爬到你头上去玩你的头发。
我还记得你和阿妈住在我们前面的时候有一晚我睡不着,妈妈就带我去敲你的门。还早上四点中,可是我也带了一个拼图去跟你玩。
我还记得是你每天鼓励我要好好做功课,之前被乘法表。在学习方面,是你给我着些好的习惯。
我也还记得你和阿妈班到老人公寓的时候,每一次你们开车回家,我会很快跑到楼上的窗户跟你们挥手再见。。因为你们很老,我很怕是最后次能看到你们了。
好象真的是最后时刻能看到你了。。我会很想很想你阿公。我每次想象就会哭。可是我只有一个希望阿公,是如果你真的相信耶稣,我们一天还会见,在天堂。

我很爱你阿公。谢谢你对我生命有那么大的印象。

Grandpa,

I remember when we used to play Chinese checkers together.
I remember when I was in elementary school, you would walk to my school everyday to pick me up.
I remember when I was little I used to climb on top of your head and play with your hair.
I remember, when you and Grandma still lived across the street from us, one night I couldn’t sleep so Mom brought me across the street and I knocked on your door. It was still 4am, but I brought a puzzle to play with you.
I remember it was you who encouraged me everyday to do my homework and study multiplication tables before I even learned them.
I also remember after you and Grandma moved away, every time you drove out from the driveway, I would run up the stairs to the window to wave goodbye to you..because you were old and I was afraid it was the last time I would see you.
But it looks like the time has come that I really only have a few chances left to see you. I’m really, really going to miss you Grandpa. Every time I think about it I want to cry. But I have this one hope Grandpa, it’s that if you really believe in Jesus, we can meet again one day in heaven.

I love you Grandpa. Thank you for having such a big impact on my life.

i love you felicia <3
i rem when my grandpa was very sick then and unable to speak, my greatest wish was to see him saved. i visited him very often but he could not speak and was very weak. so each time i just sat beside him and sang some chinese worship songs to him. he seemed rahter comforted each time. then came the day when i was finally alone with him. i felt in my spirit it was the right time so i asked him if he would like to receive Jesus into his heart. to my shame, he nodded his head and so i said the sinner's prayer and asked him to repeat it in his heart. not too long after that he passed away. the funny thing is i began to doubt whether my grandpa did understand then what we were doing weeks later. so i sought the Lord for answer and finally one day, He prompted me to attend the sat healing svc at the church i am worshipping. through the msg, God spoke to me and gave me the assurance that my grandfather is saved. that really set my heart at ease. eventualy, i shared this with my gramdma and though she did not believe me initially, gradually she began to be curious and asked me more. i am still sharing with her each time i visit and i hope it will not be too long before she too comes to Christ. Have faith :)
