Empowered Camp Skit

Hey guys! This is just a sample camp skit if you have no idea what to have for a skit. This is a true story based on my life. I have alopecia areata which is a hair fall disease and I was diagnosed since 2008. Life was hard, like REALLY HARD even after knowing Christ. But through that experience, I was mould to be a strong girl where I know that my identity is only found in Christ and Christ alone and only He can say who I am. What He thinks of me matters the most, even more than what my mom thinks of me!

Scene 1:

This is a story of a little girl name Grace. She is a one energetic, optimistic fine girl grown up with a father and a mother who loves her so much. But one day, she is diagnosed with alopecia, a hair fall disease. As days pass by, her hair falls like fallen leaves and eventually she has a bald patch at the back of her head. One day, she went to school…

(Rachel enters. Jensen and Cailyn sits behind her and saw the bald patch.)

Jensen: (talking to Cailyn) Hey! Grace has a bald patch on her head. Ewww! (talking to everyone) Hey everybody! Grace has a bald patch on her head!

Cailyn: (sings) Grace has no hair, Grace has no hair! Hahahaha

(Jensen and Cailyn laughs at her and sticks notes saying “bald girl”)

Scene 2:

Ever since then, her classmates and slowly schoolmates made fun of her. She became moody and sad. She swipes of the sticky notes that are on her back every time before she reach home. She don’t want her parents to find out.

(Grace reaches home)

Christine: Hey sweetheart, how’s school? Did you play with your friends in school? And how’s your homework? Did the teacher…

(Dad cuts in)

Brian: Oh Christine, you know our daughter. She is always doing fine. Right sweetie?

(Brian lifts Grace up and spins her. Little Grace is happy and enjoyed the “ride”)

Brian: Now go to your room and freshen up.

Christine: Mommy’s gonna cook something delicious tonight. We’ll call you when dinner’s ready.

(Everyone leaves. Big Grace appears)

That is how little Grace’s life goes even until she grew up. Her hair falls and eventually she becomes bald. However, she is more low-spirited and gloomy which people would call her by her nickname “Emo girl”.

Scene 3:

(After 7 years... Big Grace enters. Two popular girls enters and saw Grace.)

Leh Roo: Hey Emo girl! There’s a high school dance coming up. Have you found your partner? Oops I’m sorry, nobody wants you!

Bertha: See this hair? This is naturally grown hair unlike your… wig.

(Leh Roo and Bertha laughs. Weng Hong flips the books Grace’s holding)

Weng Hong: The nerd’s not gonna go to the homecomings anyway cause she need to study and get her As. Plus her hair falls like waterfall. Nobody’s gonna take that kind of girl to a dance!

(Weng Hong, Leh Roo and Bertha laughs at her as Grace walks out. Weng Hong and Leh Roo leaves.)

Scene 4:

(Grace enters sobing and screaming, feeling depressed. Slow music enters and Grace expresses her displease to God)

(Friend comes in)

Phoebe: Hey, you look so down. I heard what happened to you. Well, yes you may be different but that doesn’t mean that God hates you to create you like this. God loves you for who you are and you have to take heart on that. God wants to empower you for something greater for His plan.

(Phoebe holds her hand and prays for her sings That’s What Faith Can Do by Kutless)

(Slowly music comes in as Phoebe leaves, singing – This Is Me from “The Greatest Showman)

Scene 5:

After that encounter, Grace changed, she is no longer the sad and low-spirited girl, but to the optimistic and energetic girl that she used to be because she found herself in god and EMPOWERED BY GOD.

(Song We Dance by Bright Ones enters. Grace dances. All other joins in)

A Comeback Post!

It's been so long since I've writing blogs! Now that I've entered the so-called "college life", I have difficulties in finding time for myself and do what I love to do.

I started studying Diploma in Nursing last year July (2017) and little did I know how difficult it is to be in this course. How did I end up here? Well, it is all God's plan!

To be exact, my choices for further studies are:

1. Full-time minister

2. Early Childhood Education

3. Tourism/Hospitality

Honestly speaking, I never was the science geek or the math geek so I never thought of entering any field that includes science or math. I am the type who just loves to interact and socialize and walk around making a difference in the lives of people. That's why my first choice was to be a full-time minister because I just LOVE to do God's work!

So I told my mom that I want to be a full-time minister. She was okay with the idea so she sent me to a 24/7 prayer house somewhere in Mantin, Malaysia where I am supposed to be trained there for 3 years. However, in my perspective, it is quite off from the Bible and I did not have the peace because if it is God's plan, you will have peace. So I decided to leave the place. Me and my mom we couldn't find anywhere else to be equipped to be a full-time minister so we decided to just stay home and be like any other kid, enter college.

I applied for polytechnic and was actually waiting for the acceptance letter. I was so determined to get it because I had really good results for my exams. But somewhere in March or April 2017, I received news from my mom that one hospital in Penang wanted to sponsor me for my studies. I was like, "WHAT? NO WAY! I'm not a science geek. During high school, I studied for accounting and economics. They must be mistaken." They knew about this, but they are still so willing to sponsor me to study a diploma in Nursing. So I accepted their offer and thought "Hey, why not?"

Throughout my studies, it was really hard for me to catch up because all the other kids studied Biology, Physics, and Chemistry while I have 0 basics in all these. Moreover, my lecturer aka program leader forbids me to join any church activity. But still, I did not lose faith and kept praying for a way and really! God listens! After 6 months my program leader allows me to join church activities and now I am currently serving actively in Hope Church Penang.

Throughout my journey, I have seen and experienced God and tasted of His goodness and faithfulness in my life! It is truly amazing when God moves in your life when you keep praying and having faith and not lose heart. Never once did I ever walked alone in this life. I pray that you will too experience God in many ways, both expected and unexpected.

Cheers and God bless!
