November 18, 2005: Van Nguyen Clemency Rejected:

An Australian citizen Van Nguyen who was guilty of smuggling heroin in Singapore has yesterday had an appeal for clemency rejected. Van Nguyen will be executed by hanging in a fortnight. His mother (and we feel for her) knows the exact time and moment that he will die. Most people know that one day they will die, but they don't know the exact time or place. Some people will live a long life, others may only have days or weeks remaining. Therefor there is an urgency upon us all to really be mindful of God and his desires for our lives. God wishes to bless us and can only do this if we truly turn our lives over to Him. Read about how to turn your life over to God here. We pray and hope that Van Nguyen has also found peace with God.
