...sigh...christmas has come and christmas is almost gone...another year passes...
i honestly did not feel any of the christmas spirit up till this morning's church service...there, i was reminded that it's not remembrance of the birth of a special child all those years back, not just a time of merriment and gift exchange...but most crucially, a celebration of God's love for mankind...that He would sacrifice His best for us...to reach out in purest love to us...to welcome us back into the fold...
God's present to us is there to be taken...but why are so many hesitating to just reach out and grasp that loving hand? just think about it....if you were a kid on christmas day and you received a big-ass pressie...one with humoungous "potential"....wouldn't you be all agog and raring to open THAT gift? God's gift to us is like that....but we're not agog and raring...how ironic...
well, worship today was just quite magical...i do not remember enjoying worship so much in a long long time already...although i must admit dozing intermittently during Rev Wee's sermon...i blame it all on the chinese translation getting in the way of the flow of the message....just really irritating to me...
i am all hammed out...much too much of the good stuff...mince pies, turkey, sausages, curry, shepherd's pie, ngor hiang, fruitcake, beer, wine and eggnog...die man, i don't dare to get onto my weighing scale tonight :))
