Over the weekend, the happy trio took a drive up to Highland Christian Centre in Cameron Highlands where the Klang youth group set up camp. We set off for Camerons from KL really late due to an earlier engagement, and so by the time we were snaking up to Tanah Rata, it was in the complete cover of darkness. Ryan was asleep for most of the journey up and only woke up when we momentarily winded down the window (only for a noisy bike to suddenly pass by). It was just about an hour before midnight when we finally reached our destination. The little township at the top of the mountains was such a refreshing sight and it was just so good to see it again (my first time in 11 years). We easily found the turning into our place of lodging for the night and then started to make our way up another small narrow winding road to the center. It was the cool of the air, the familiar sight of a beaten path, the sound of crunching loose stones beneath us that really transported us back to our RBS days almost 11 years ago. The only difference back then was that we had to walk up and not drive up.

This was the site we met so many years ago over a cup of milo, amongst a backdrop of other teens put in the same awkward first meet up scenario (the cold weather back then adding to the shivers). Years ago, we were just a bunch of fresh, fired up form five leavers not knowing what lay ahead for us. Fast forward a couple of years down the road, and we see how the Lord has wonderfully worked in ways with the paths we tread. And here we were again … having left HCC years ago as mere acquaintances but returned this time round together married and now with an additional bubbly baby. Sometimes, it’s just amazing to recollect God’s faithfulness and goodness to His people every step of the way and how some places just remind us of that reality.
