CHRISTMAS!! @ 12:09 AM
Whee! Just had xmas service today! It was great. The story of the dad running together with the son was ultra touching. Can u imagine? Derrick sth was running a race, den sth broke, he fell. Everybody at the stadium was stunned, but Derrick insisted in completing the race. He was limping very badly then out came his dad, reaching out his hands to hold his child, limping till the end of the race. Everybody was very amazed at the love the father gave, the support and everything. The way I said it may not be as touching as it seems, but to me it was really gonna be a moving sight if i were to be at the stadium.
If a earthly father can give good gifts to his children, what more God? He will give anything that will benefit us and provide us with his unconditional love, he understands us more than we understand ourself. How wonderful can he get? Christmas without christ is no christmas at all! Its just another festive season that we celebrate, go on with life and move on after that. What a meaningless christmas that would be.
Anw, received alot of cards today! Some are really encouraging, some are made out of tedious efforts,some simple and nice. But all motivates me to grow in the Kingdom of God and to serve more people. Oh well, God is good, all the time.
