Christmas Carnival 2008

My church organized a Christmas Carnival recently. I was one of the committee members. The church's aim was to bless the communities around the church. Right after the carnival i had to send my friend to the airport, KLIA. It was a heartbreaking day as our friends (Tracy and Alvin) will be leaving us for good to Miri but I'm sure that we will be able to meet again one day...

Friendship is God's Gift to us at Christmas

Dear Friends,

God Has given us many different people in our lives to help make the journey easier.
God gave us parents to love and nurture us.
He gave us siblings to help us learn how to get along in this world.
He gave us friends, to walk with us at different times and to help deal with all the other people in our lives.
Very rarely does He create a "Special Edition" in friendship, a rare and wonderful gift, in which He combines the best of all the other relationship in our lives.
He even adds a bit of heavenly love to keep the friendship shiny and new.
This is what we share; a treasure only a very few even know exists.
So this Christmas, please know that I will celebrate along with you the joy of the holidays and the special gift you are to me.

"Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009".

Jesus is better than Santa

REMEMBER:

Jesus is Better than Santa

Santa lives at the North Pole .

JESUS is everywhere.

Santa rides in a sleigh

JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.

Santa comes but once a year

JESUS is an ever present help.

Santa fills your stockings with goodies

JESUS supplies all your needs.

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited

JESUS stands at your door and knocks.. and then enters your heart.

You have to stand in line to see Santa

JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.

Santa lets you sit on his lap

JESUS lets you rest in His arms.

Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, What's your name?"

JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knows our history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads .

Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly

JESUS has a heart full of love .

All Santa can offer is HO HO HO

JESUS offers health, help and hope.

Santa says "You better not cry"

JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.

Santa's little helpers make toys

JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions .

Santa may make you chuckle but

JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.

While Santa puts gifts under your tree

JESUS became our gift and died on the tree.

It's obvious there is really no comparison.

We need to remember WHO Christmas is all about.
We need to put Christ back in Christmas.

Jesus is still the reason for the season .

May the Lord Bless and Watch over you and your loved ones this Christmas 2008
And may He prosper and bless the work of your hands in the New Year.

BBQ Fiesta at Tanjung Malim

Hi all,

I went to Tanjung Malim with my church members yesterday. We reached there from Shah Alam about 11.15am.. The place was ok lah, 555 but we had a lot of fun. We had bbq and makan-makan. Lepas makan kami mandi tapi ada juga yang tidak mandi... Some of us can't swim. Ada yang terminum air sungai dan hampir lemas...kesian:-) ok lah layan gambar-gambar ni..

Ugou and me

We leave Tanjung Malim at 16.45 and got home about 18.30...

Mengampuni bos

Semalam lepas balik dari satu interview kerja saya ditegur oleh bos saya. Agaknya dia perasan dan dapat menghidu sesuatu iaitu saya sedang mencari pekerjaan baru. Mulanya saya cuma tersenyum tapi apabila dia katakan sesuatu benar-benar menyentuh perasaan saya, sedar tak sedar saya menangis... selepas itu saya menyalahkan diri sebab membuang airmata untuk sesuatu yang remeh seperti itu. Heh! memang dasar kilang airmata..

Sememangnya saya sudah terlalu bosan dengan suasana di tempat kerja. Kerja yang berulang-ulang selama empat tahun memang sangat membosankan. Saya tidak nafikan yang syarikat di mana saya bekerja sangat baik dan agak kukuh dari segi ekonomi tapi bos saya kadang-kadang sepertinya kurang memahami. Dia seringkali mempersoalkan kenapa saya tidak bekerja pada hujung minggu.Adakalanya dia bertanya kenapa saya perlu datang ke gereja pada hari ahad dan jika saya tidak ke gereja adakah saya akan mati pada keesokan harinya.

Saya faham yang dia hanya bergurau tapi seringkali dalam nada gurauan itu jauh di sudut hatinya dia sebenarnya serius. Saya sangat kenal dengan sikapnya. Bos saya memang terkenal dengan mulut 'lancang' dan lepas cakap di tempat kerja. Orang bijakpandai berkata, perempuan akan mengeluarkan 6,000 patah perkataan setiap hari manakala lelaki akan mengeluarkan 4,000 patah perkataan setiap hari. Rasanya ini kes lain sebab bos saya akan mengeluarkan lebih daripada 100,000 patah perkataan setiap hari. Dia akan mula bercakap dari pukul 8.00 pagi sampai 8.00 malam tanpa henti. Teruk tahap dewa!

Tapi syukur saya sudah mengampuni. Tuhan ampunilah bosku sebab dia tidak tahu apa yang dia perbuat. Berikan dia hikhmat untuk menilai mana yang baik dan buruk dan terlebih Bapa, biar Roh Kudusmu yang berbicara dengan dia. Amen.

My niece prayer

I got an sms from my sister this morning. She told me the story about my niece (my sister’s youngest daughter). Her name is Aditta and she is 8 years old now. She is pretty close to my mum as she spent most of her time with my mum.

For some reason, my mum has to come to KL for a month. My niece called me last Friday, she told me that she misses my mum a lot. She also talked to my sister “every day I will pray that grandma will not get sick…"

Last night, before they go to bed and my sister wanted to turn off the light, she asked my sister "mum, please do not off the light first, I would like to pray”. She took quite long time to pray. My sister asked her “what did you prayed for?” she said “I pray for grandma, Chris (her cousin that now not feeling well) and brother that they will not get sick”. I was stunned by the faith of this little kid. She did a very simple prayer but I believe that Jesus heard everything and He knows more than what she have ever imagine...

Jesus said in Matthew, "Let the little children to come to Me, and don't prevent them. For of such is the kingdom of Heaven."
Jesus loved to take the children in His arms, sit with them on His lap and bless them. He loved to share stories with them and teach them of His love. That same Jesus longs to do that still. He longs for them to feel His loving embrace as they learn of Him through the timeless stories from the Bible...
