Today, in church, I'm sad to say that part of the service was dedicated to Uncle Berwin. Pastor William was careful to tell us all about his passion and enthusiasm, his positive outlook on life right up till the moment God decided to bring Uncle Berwin back with him.
When i arrived, Auntie Carolyn was doing Children's Church. But Uncle Sean said i wouldn't help her cause' i didn't have the training to. "But I helped her for 6 months last year." He still said i could only help after I'd attended a training session. I nodded. Ok. Whatever.
Had praise and worship, lots of people were already crying. (whoa.)
Sat in the sanctuary to listen to the sermon. I sat next to Jordan and Ellie, and I'm telling you, the way Jordan applies make up single-handedly never ceases to amaze me. I think Jordan could become one of those personal shopper people. Kinda. Since she knows so much stuff about fashion. Gosh. She knows brands that i can hardly pronounce. (Till i was in primary 6, i pronounced Chanel as Channel. ROFL.)
After church, waited in the kitchen with Tim and Mark for hospitality. Turned out they were making the sandwiches outside. Grabbed a couple and bummed around church after the service, loads of people prayed for Uncle Berwin and his family.
I felt sad.
But then a script played itself out in my mind after Pastor William's message that day.
God: So, eh, Berwin. You've been here a couple of days now.Berwin: Yes, boss.God: That's good, that's good. Well, you see, lots of people down there -gestures to Earth- miss you. So... well, i'm giving you the choice. Wanna go back down to Earth?Berwin: ERK. No thanks. I'll wait for them to join me up here.LOL. I so bet that's what would happen. Even if we want Uncle Berwin back, he isn't going to want to come back anyway!! And that's actually very reassuring.
He's in a better place.
So let's just mourn, not cause we want him back, since we know he's in a better place, but because we knew him, and he was our friend. We might never get to see his smile down here on Earth, but i'm sure he'll be happy in heaven anyways, and that's all that matters :)
Thank God for letting us know Uncle Berwin!! XD
Verse Of The Day:2 Timothy 4:7 (Averse of Perseverance)
7I have fought the good fight,
I have finished the race,
I have kept the faith.
...But I'll try
Even though I do...still...
Miss you
Just like the air that I breathe
I need you
With me
I'm not gonna lie
I cant imagine my life
With out you but I
Suppose I will survive...
