My Lovely Sister [I]

One must be wondering who is this young lady and why do I want to post an entry about her in my blog. This beautiful lady is Jacklyn. She is a great friend and a great sister of mine.

Behind her smile lays a wonderful story about her personal experience with God. I still remember I first got to know her when I was in Form 1, we were in the same class. The first impression that she had given me was: a happy-go-lucky and easy-going lass.

We were in the same class again in Form 3, but I was not close to her yet, until one day, my mom told me that she attended the same church as I. Perhaps I should say we were just acquaintances at  this point. She sat behind me during exams, so one day after exam, I approached her and we got to know each other more from then on...

After PMR, we attended a camp together. This was the start of our friendship. The reason I got to know that we attended the same church was because of the demise of her beloved mother. During the camp, God comforted her with His love, joy, peace, grace and hope. I could see for myself how God touches her life.

From then on, we got to know each other more and more. We attended Physics tuition together in Form 4 and Form 5, and were 'neighbours' in Form 5. It was really fun being with her. I still remember I always teased her, and her easy-going character just made it more interesting when we tease each other.

This young lass is really great. I always feel comfortable being with her and her experiences with God really encourage me a lot. I know I can always open myself before her, and am not afraid to share with her my deepest feelings. Her great smile and strong character make me feel so warm and seeing her, I just cannot stop myself from smiling.

I still tease her now. We try to meet up as often as we could since she is in Australia now. Once in a while we will chat on MSN, or through video calling, SMS and e-mail to each other. Having her as my sister is definitely a blessing from God. I love her and I know she loves me too.

T***t,

I love you :) Thanks for allowing me to post an entry about you here. Hope to see you soon! =)

Love,
