meeting disappointment

Tuesday, March 04, 2008


after yest's events, i am challenged to believe in the best and to love the students.

after yest's program in sch and as we were packing up to leave, my colleague discovered that her wallet was missing. She explained that she left her bag in the classrm but left it unzipped.Then later a security guard handed to us her wallet. The handphone and cash was all gone! What was so strange was that she had left her wallet in the classroom where we had our session and yet the wallet was found outside of the classroom, at the 1st floor. We were at the 2nd floor. It makes no sense bcos the classrm door was locked all this while and the key was kept by my colleague. We did not understand how the wallet could have been found at the 1st floor.
our only logical conclusion was that one of the students from our program stole the wallet from her bag.

i dun really know how to describe that feeling. but just when i think of the possibility that someone in our program stole her stuff, i just felt so...gek xin. its like i just cant bring myself to believe...i feel very disappointed ...very uncomfortable, just thinking that it may have been one of the students who did it. i am saddened by it. its like a heartache u cant really explain. u just dont believe it... or rather, u cant bring yourself to believe it.

my colleague felt the same way. afterall, these are the boys we have been seeing the past few weeks. She does not feel sad about losing her money and hp, just wants to have her sim card back. She was very calm. I dunno if i can be as calm if i were her. most likely not.

and yest session was a difficult one. the boys were rowdy and hard to manage. and then the theft.

the DM said he will investigate first thing in the morning...and....
i hope the boy who took it will own up...although that possibility is very SLIm..

i dunno how i can face them again today.. really dunno how..
i am really challenged to believe in them. and to love them. Love keeps no records of wrong.
but i WON'T give up believing.

for what hope is there by giving up?


Dear God, may you turn this around for good. Only you can work in their hearts and cause change and growth. Lord, fill us with ur everlasting grace, love and mercy, that we will continue loving despite the risk of getting hurt. Lord, help us see what u see. Fill us with your love that we will continue to love. Teach us never to give up. Thank You Lord. In Jesus' precious name i pray, Amen.
