Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday January 28, 2025 from 1300-1500

Today is Chinese New Year Eve so, a time stamp to close another chapter of our life on mission with God year in year out. It was still a very hot day of high noon with scorching heat near and around the Toowong Bus Stop. People tended to high behind the covered booth under the shade.

I got to Toowong bus stop a bit later than usual as I have to deliver stuff to the Toowong Baptist Church ready for their meeting tomorrow that I am not available to attend. But when I arrived by myself (all others are not available to day because of the Chinese New Year Eve family reunion affair) the bus stop was empty except with one lady sitting on the bench under the scorching sunshine. It was apparently a divine appointment as my chat with Lawrence an Australian Born Sri Lankan lasted over half an hour which is too unusual. She is a QUT student as such she was taking a bus to go home, not to UQ, that could explain that route may be not a frequent one compare to those heading for UQ. She is non religious but is very open minded, friendly and polite in conducting interactive talk with me. She like majority of the good persons, have not thought of the consequence of being good but imperfect in her human character. The gospel message does present to her an one of a kind rational logic that every human being, as long as we are not perfect, may all need external help to rectify the effect of imperfection or sin. At the end, she graciously ask for a tract and promise to ponder this important issue by herself. I though her had come , but later found out she was still left alone at the bus stop perhaps missing her bus because of our long conversation. I any way, did not want to give her pressure and wanted to leave her alone for personal meditation. So I called off the outreach earlier than usual.
