I met Fr. Fabian yesterday and told him that my video is up on Malaysiakini and at the point when I was telling him, there have been 11K views. He was just downloading the video at that time and haven’t watch it yet.
He asked me, “Did you get the part about humility and be grateful to God?”
Sometimes, we humans have a certain wavelength with certain people and less receptive to others. With Fr. Fabian, I am all ears and eyes.
I told him, “Yes, that’s my focus. It is all about peace.”
Praise the Lord that I have the foresight to film this humble piece. It has been viewed almost 19,000 times on Malaysiakini.tv. I hope there are some people who had been enlightened that though the court ruled that The Herald can continue their Bahasa Malaysia version with the term Allah, we are not jubilant or jumping with joy. Yes, we feel happy and relieved that there is finally some fair judgement.
But we are reminded to accept it with humility and be grateful to God.
And praise to God that He has granted me the skills to show that our Catholic faith promotes peace and only peace. It has been overwhelming to me.

11 “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. (Matthew 5:11-12, NKJV)
12 Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; 13 but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. 14 If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.[d] On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people’s matters. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter. (1 Peter 12-16, NKJV).
