A Breath of Fresh Air
“A BREATH OF FRESH AIR” By Dr Lau Ying Kheng, faculty at East Asia School of Theology
In April this year, the 2nd wave of Covid-19 engulfed India, taking away over 7 million jobs. Almost overnight, 9,000 Indian children lost one or both parents (theguardian.com). It was devastating.
That wave made a splash in my life a month later. One early morning, while praying and preparing for a talk on “Freedom”, the Lord asked me, “You said your heart is broken for India, so what will you do for her?”

Prayer Pointers -16 December 2021
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13 :34,35 -ESV
We thank God that we are loved to love, blessed to bless. It is God’s command that we love one another, and in doing so, to be disciplined and responsible for our health and that of other’s. Safe distancing and getting vaccinated are social responsibilities and norms to keep safe and stay healthy for ourselves and others.
Praise God that vaccination and booster jabs are available to our International students and that many have benefitted from it.
Pray for:
– God’s continual protection for our International students here and their extended families in their home countries.
– God’s grace and favour for all to experience love in this season of love.
