These past two days have been history in the making. It will be down in the buku teks sejarah, at which for once-the opposition came out strong to take major states in the country. And for once, the opposition really counted for something.
I can't believe that each vote really counts. I always used to think that regardless, it's just one in the sea of millions. But can you believe what happens when you "believe" that your voice counts? Just that one vote can literally slay giants.
What's also interesting to note that it is not about the race this time around. It's about general, overall wellbeing of where Malaysia is headed. Perhaps, God has placed us here for a reason, for such a time as this? It's exciting, yet we are headed to an extent for unknown and uncharted waters.
I think there will be lots of mistakes made, but what's important is that we learn from the mistakes, and the leaders that are put into place, would be God fearing individuals who will be accountable for their actions to the One above, and also to those who have believed in them.
I don't know much about the person I voted, I saw her smile at me, and she did go to the same school I went to - but I do hope that she will believe in the big picture. That Malaysia can indeed be good - and we can do it all together, regardless of the colour scheme.
Most of all, let's continue to pray for Malaysia, the winds of change is here, let's pray for continuous wisdom, peace and understanding for the leaders, and the people.
Amen.
