Matthew 8:22 But Jesus said to him, Follow Me, and let the dead bury their dead.

As he taled I took his picture. This was many years back. That time his health still very good for his age.

That time he can still active as he care he walked and talked to those trippers, during Malaka's trip.

At Sentosa, Malaysia, morning breakfast.

We enjoy coversation during dinner before return to Singapore

My wife called me on Monday night and told me that Belinda SMS her that Bro. Koo Oon Lock has been admitted to the hospital, but she added that nothing so serious because she saw him in the church last Sunday. Brother Koo is my big brother quite sometime back. When I went to Rhema Bible Training Center he was always had morning meetings next door with few of his friends, faithfully. I have always met him during break. Our respect to each other become friend and eventually partner in mission together. He followed me to Thailand, first time, in 2005 during school holiday. That trip a friend of mine who used to play golf together had accepted Christ. After he accepted Christ he lead so many to Christ. Even trained from the Bible Center I do not have experience in the work of the Holy Spirit in evangelism that way. Bro. Khoo spoke in English I translated.  The man told me that he does not really understand what we are talking about when Mr. Khoo asked whether he want to accepted Christ he just accepted. God has taken Mr.Sanyawoot's sinner prayer at his word. We do not know real condition of his heart but we left him with Peter and Nooch to look after him to walk with him and to advise him how to become Christ's disciple.
The man who far ahead of me, even I brought him to the game, but from his determination with in few months he left me behind in golf game and become the guru of many new players in teaching golf to many of them. I still remember that trip well even so many years past. That incident led to many things like jigsaw puzzle that called me back to Thailand to the mission to tell Thai people message of Good News. The mission is to tell them to know my Lord Jesus Christ, the most wonderful person I have just met. I became dirty dust of the world by world's standard. I have been cleansed up and eager to be used by the Lord. I have never been a good son of the family I fail everyone expectations. I have eventually know that i am even worst than the dirt of the world but so dirty even myself dared not even look to my life. I have been thinking about how scary to look to my own story. I used to proud of my story in those sinner acts. I even like to write to show it to the world. What I have to show? I am glad that Christ has pull me to his kingdom and revealed so many things and has open my blinded eyes to see His glory.
Brother Khoo Onn Lock was generous and very kind to many as well as to me. He is great supporter in many way, one thing is his faithful in doing thing. He seldom fail to come to the morning meeting rain or shine. I walked home with him many times. We spent time together and eventually walked together in mission. He raised up "Holidays with a Purpose" group of Volunteers In Mission from 2008 and after that every year. He even booked for this year even paid in advance. We know that even his spirit is willing but physically he so weak. I was even planning to go back to see him after this teaching tip to Myanmar people in Mae Sot and the Bible camp in Pradumri. Because I know that he can not make this trip with his group.
I was just camback from buying blackink for my printer. My wife called me earlier but started with sorrow sound and said that Mr. Khoo has gone to the Lord but I told her that we should not make that longing ceremonial hypocrite sound but a joyfulnoise as we know where he is going. I personally do not like to walk in this world like brother Khoo did. For so many decades after his wife gone to the Lord he still expressed the memory I don't like to describe it. We talked about it so many time about those feeling he had. Only 3 days in the hospital we easily went to the Lord. I just want to remember him about his kindness, his generosity, his caring, his faithfulness, and many experiences he testified about his life in Christ. Brother, we only have eternity experience in this temporary world, so short and not even worth to consider this world as our home, so that make Paul said in Philippians 1:21 that: For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 


Matthew 10:8  Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. You have received freely, freely give.
 
Matthew 11:5  the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear; the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel proclaimed to them.

Revellation 14:13  And I heard a voice from Heaven saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on. Yes, says the Spirit, they shall rest from their labors, and their works follow them.
