Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday May 21st, 2025 from 1030-1200

Returning to Sunnybank for regular weekly street outreach after two weeks of Interstate mission to Coober Pedy via Adelaide, the situation was the opposite of yesterday outreach in Toowong. Despite I already waited for a longer arriving schedule of the next bus, my time for sharing of Gospel were still in main insufficient and incomplete. . And none of my gospel targets today showed the same eagerness to the gospel message and all left in a hurry when the bus arrived leaving no chance for any decent selfie. It was a clear lesson for me that God is the only one in control of everything including their responses and readiness timing to receive Christ. We just do our part to be His messenger speaking aloud the prophetic voice to persuade people to repent and return to God through Jesus Christ redemptive and atoning grace.

1) Led first to approach a Young man studying in UQ from Chongxin重慶. Rapport was built because of my Sichuan earthquake disaster relief role in Counselling. He was impressed I took all the troubles to go back to China and serve there intermittently for 7 years after the earthquake by conducting counselling class mainly at those government controlled 3 self churches. Time was not enough for full gospel but just a nutshell shared with my testimony.

2) Next was a Hongkonger mum already migrated to Australia with kids doing high school. She actually live in the Northside and is attending the Kedron Brisbane Cantonese Church even though she is still a non believer. She cannot tell the church name but can tell Rev Zivah Lai's name. Again, only have a few minutes with her for the nutshell of the gospel.

3) Next is a lady from Thailand that I chatted many times before. 泰女 Just a friendly greeting and polite reminder of the gospel message and let her to be moved and touched by the Spirit through such repeated divine encounters.

4) Then I turned to a guy next to me who is from South Korea.南韓 He is also a non-believers. Shared a bit more almost full gospel but still finally interrupted by the arriving bus.

5) Then I was led to reunion with an ABC of Muslim faith possibly from her Australian dad and her mum is from Taiwan. Basically continuing on our conversation last time to reiterate the facts that every one who are good but not perfect all needs Jesus. She did not show great rejection of Jesus's name as those elderly Muslim people. So her mind basically is still open and impartial with good inclination to admit the need of salvation by Christ and Christ alone.

6) Last but not the least having the longest conversation with a man around 60 from same home town of Chairman Mao in Hunan. He is just visiting relative but live a mundane life. I tried to address his loneliness issue chatting a lot about Hunan and things happening in China and finally came to he gospel. His heart was softened by friendship so full gospel was shared before his bus come. His willingness to take a selfie with me was finally trashed by his need to rush to catch the bus. Otherwise, it was a good chat and fruit bearing divine encounter especially for a mainlander.
