There was no mobile phone for me more than twenty years ago.
When travelling overseas, I had to use telephone to contact home.
Years ago, when Pastor Visanukorn came to Singapore to serve God a few days
in Thai Good News Centre, he stayed at our place. So that a large amount
of hotel rental could be saved.
One evening, I looked at his face and his appearance, I asked, "Are you thinking of home?"
I went to Chiang Rai, Thailand to assist the Christmas Celebration in 2014.
I stayed in the Holiday Resort of Maechan. The staff of the Resort helped me
to set up the Wi-Fi connection and I could contact my family soon.
A few days later, I saw my mobile phone was blinking when I woke up. I switched it on. Oh! The night before my son sent a picture to me. Because of the time different, I was already asleep. Looking at the picture of my son, I was very happy. He was holding a fish that he caught. His smile brought me much joy.
While going back to the Holy Love Hostel, I received a message from my son's girlfriend. She sent me a Happy Birthday blessing. I was very glad to receive the blessing when I was thousand miles away from home. I ever heard the preaching from a missionary. He reminded us to send blessing and encouragement message to missionary friends who were away from home.
I read from the Internet that some voluntary workers wrote:
We have to do our part to treat the volunteers well.
Especially for those who believe in God, that is God's teaching.
