Judging Books

Tonight was actually pretty awesome. My family went to Victoria's and Angela's (hopefully you still remember them) church and heard someone say their testimony and adventures but this someone isn't just somebody, this is the Miss Hong Kong Pageant Winner of 1975, Mary Pandora Cheung.(but get this, she is the sister in law for Bruce Lee. I didn't believe this when i heard of it either.) So when I entered their church, it was so different from our church since there were soft chairs instead of pews and the sanctuary was pretty small compared to ours. It was a really big slap in the face for me.

When her testimony started, it was really straightforward about how she came to God and how she accepted God. The most touching part of that was the part when she talked about how her son went to school, said goodbye to his father and came back at 6 pm to start dinner but as he called his father, he didn't respond because he already passed away while he was asleep from watching tennis and he had to call his mom back from Beijing since this happened. Another thing about her is that she hated her parents when they were young because she was an orphan and she abhorred both mother's day and father's day. She soon found out where her mom was but in Taiwan and by that time, she forgave her for leaving her as a child which was also quite touching as well. Who knew a successful woman like her could have such a somber past? I seriously didn't.
