"不凡的爱"

Went back to Pasir Ris Camp for a post Army Exercise I went to in May, and the purpose was to check for HIV. Upon getting the notification, I MSNed my friend and asked him about it. Then we begin to embark into an interesting converstaion about the whole HIV thingy. He told me about how fearful he was about the whole review. Not that he was guilty or anything, he was more concerned about whether the results will turn out to be positive or not. I then asked him what would he do, if he found out that he contracted HIV? He then said he would quit his job and start a business, hoping to start afresh.

From a converstation like this, it is no secret that everyone would be fearful of contracting an incurable disease. Imagine all the humilations and adjustments one would have to make in order to fit back into society? What would you do? What would I do as a Christian? It is a question worth THINKING about. It would be easy for me to say I will still carry on to live my life and believe in God but when the crunch comes, will I really be able to live out what I say? I guess words are cheap. It's finally what you will do when you are in that situation that counts. And it's not about putting up a front but who you are deep inside that matters...

"Lord help me to be a man who is careful with my words. And may the words that I say be honest, truthful and well-thought through even before it proceeds out from my mouth..."
