It’s Christmas time. Christmas is an exciting time of joy, love and fun. It’s time of extending love. It’s a time of meeting up with people. It’s time of food, music and laughter. It’s a time when we can invite our friends over and have a meal. It’s time of balik kampong, relaxing amidst the struggles of modern day living. It’s a time of exchanging gifts.
The greatest gift you will ever receive is the gift of life. 2000 years ago, God took the form of a human being on that Christmas day. What an act of love and humility. He came to save us from our sins. He came to give us life – new life, abundant life and eternal life. This is the greatest gift we will ever receive. This is why we celebrate Christmas.
I am looking forward to our Christmas Eve service tomorrow. It’s great to come together to proclaim His miraculous birth. Looking forward to Christmas day as we fellowship over a meal. This Sunday after service, we head to Penang and spend some time with mum and dad.
See you all next year. 2010 here we come.
Is.9:6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Wishing all of you a Merry Christmas and a Fruitful New Year
