DAILY REFLECTION

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
Psalms‬ ‭34‬:‭18‬ ‭

We serve a God of wonders- One who turns suffering into strength, despair into hope, and brokenness into wholeness.

Pastor Terrence KK Sinnadurai, founder of Desa Amal Jireh (DAJ), dedicated his life to serving others, building a home for children and seniors where love and care flourished. Despite enduring a 40-year battle with diabetes and heart issues, he remained steadfast in his faith, humbly and tirelessly serving the Lord. His life was marked by generosity, unwavering dedication, and profound love for his family and community - an embodiment of living in service. On May 21, 2025, he was promoted to Heaven, surrounded by loved ones who praised God in their sorrow and gratitude. His departure reflected the peace and acceptance echoed in Psalm 34:18. Thousands gathered to mourn, their presence was a testimony to the deep impact of his life. Even through physical suffering, his spirit remained unshaken, and his legacy endures through DAJ - a living testament to his faith and compassion.

Psalm 34:18 reminds us that in our darkest moments, we are never alone. God walks with us, offering comfort and redemption. Though suffering may persist, His presence remains unwavering, His transformative power ever-present in the storm.

“The storm may be tempestuous, but it is only temporary.”
