Love is being willing to die for someone.
Dennis's friend gave his life up for him.
He had loved him,
i believed.

This is the rough story...
Somewhere along Mandai road,
Dennis was at the traffic light on his bike.
It was red,
but the sign says,
"Turn left on red."
He saw a lorry stopped,
so he decided to move on.
However,
from behind that lorry,
came another lorry.
His friend who was also on the bike,
in an effort to save Dennis,
shielded him from the lorry,
resulting in his own death.
Dennis was covered with abrasions and a fractured arm.
He is still recovering after 5 days.

My heart wrenched the minute i saw him today.
I was almost left speechless.
I wanted so much to assure him that i'm here for him.
Wanted so much to offer my support,
but somehow,
i failed to.

Life is transient.
Dennis's friend gave his life for him,
so did Jesus.
I'm thankful.

Papa,
I pray for You to restore whatever hurt that has been done.
Dennis's friend may have left him,
but i pray that Papa,
Dennis will know You're here for him.
I know You will heal him and his heart in the way You know best.
I place him in Your loving hands,
keep him safe.
In Jesus's name I pray,
Amen.
