Although the mood in the air was one of Christmas celebration, state assemblywoman of Subang Jaya, Y.B. Hannah Yeoh, the invited speaker brought to us not a time to exchange gifts, but a time to dedicate our life as a gift for God. The meeting was meaningfully led by artiste Juwita Suwito, the emcee for the night. A special inspirational feature was presented by The Tenors for Christ. A crowd of 88 working professionals from different spheres of influence attended the meeting. Many commented positively on Hannah’s talk; her sharing opened their eyes to what God can do with ordinary Christians and helped them see that God has a higher purpose and calling for their lives. In her sharing, Hannah highlighted the importance of being quick to obey God and being faithful to God’s call despite the cost involved in following Christ. In spite of the sacrifices and challenges that awaited them, she and her team decided not to be a part of those who corrupt but to be counted as among those who shape the nation for good. She simply exercised the two basic gifts God gave her—her right to vote and to stand for election. If Christians avail themselves and exercise their rights, they can be a part of lawmakers and guardians of the constitution.
