Happy Birthday, Lord Jesus!!!

Lord Jesus, Happy Birthday to You!!! Thank You for coming to be amongst us and ultimately sacrificing Your life on the cross for our sins.

Friends, A God-Blessed & Merry Christmas to you!!! Thank you for all the gifts you have blest me with. I'm truly overwhelmed! :)

I am actually very tired but I have to press on to finish this blog because I want to share God's goodness to those who read my pilgrim's journey and progress.

I am thankful to God for giving me so much calmness when I led the Carols' Night. Everything, from the Psalm 100 choral presentation; to singing of carols; to the quiz; to the children's presentation; to the short message by brother Chong Hiok; and to the last carol, went smoothly.

I praise Him for rescuing me from just going through the motion in my service last evening if not for the time spent with my Lord yesterday when I was by the Marina Bay. Hallelujah! :)

A couple of persons from amongst the congregation committed their lives to God and I rejoice with the angels in heaven for these saved souls.

I was quite discouraged that my brother and his girlfriend could not come as they had to attend a client's party. I guess church party is still not the kind of gathering he is comfortable with.

Well, I am disappointed but as I told a dear friend of mine when I was talking to her about her dad and grandmother who are also not interested in Christianity - we need to continue to pray for these our loved ones and allow God to melt their hearts one day and believe that their lives will be saved by the blood of Christ!

I will keep praying for my brother and his girlfriend, for my friend's father and grandmother and everyone else whom I know are not followers of Christ.

Well, last night's experience for me basically reaffirmed in me that I serve a real and living, faithful and powerful God! I know for sure He will not fail me! :)

I guess it is time for me to key off now and head for bed!

Merry Christmas once again to one and all!!!

"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household." Acts 16:21

"I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him." 1 John 5:13-15
