Christmas is coming!
So i find it appropriate to share with you guys this video to help you to understand a little more of why we celebrate the birth and resurrection of Jesus.
Just one thing to note though, Jesus was not born on Christmas Day as in 25th December.
Lyrics will be below :)




There’s a story that started on Christmas
When a baby was born in the night
And those who came far, who followed the star
Were seeing a heavenly sight ...
a heavenly sight.


Well the years hurried by, and the boy, now a man
Could make the blind see with a touch of his hand
He was born to be King -- he was Rabbi and Priest
But the best that he had, he gave to the least ...
He gave to the least.

He was born and he died, almost 2,000 years ago
He laughed and he cried, he felt all the fears we know
But what does it matter? A story so strange ...
Even if it is true, what does it change?
What does it change?

Well he spoke like a prophet -- like no one they’d heard
This simple young carpenter -- crowds hung on every word
He hated injustice -- He taught what is right
He said “I’m the way, and the truth, and the light.”

His friends soon believed that truly he was the one.
The Savior, Messiah, God’s one and only son.
But others, they doubted, they did not agree
So they took him, they tried him,
He died on a tree ...
He died on a tree.


God has made a way
for all who mourn and grieve
Death will never be the end
if you just believe.

There is nothing left to fear
nothing Heaven knows
For he died for us to give us life
and to give us hope He rose
He died for us to give us life
And to give us hope He rose.

I just love children.
you may be a person who is quiet, a random person just walking by. But these little children, not realli caring how u look or whether or not they noe u, they just approach you and bring a smile to your face.
For the past few days my church had this camp called the "Vacation Bible School", where children, Christian or not, would come to our church and learn more about our Lord Jesus.
Frankly speaking, i thought the children in my class (K2s) would just ignore me or give me the cold shoulder because im usually quiet.
but thank goodness, i was wrong.
They talked to me, they interacted with me. They obeyed the teachers and they respected them. They simply showered all of us with love.
if only NPCC cadets were like that LOLs.

The class that i was helping out in was Dingo -K2s.
Just in case you dont know what a Dingo is, its a dog, but this dog doesnt bark. It howls. lol.

Some of the children in the class:

1. Dillon

Probably the most playful in class and one of the funny jokers in the class. Usually he would say some funny things and the rest of the guys seating at the same table as him would laugh out loud and their laughters would fill the classroom, echoing in volume and ferocity. He is just so
adorable! :x

2. Seth

Another adorable and lovable boy. When he is happy, he is really happy. When he is quiet, he is also really quiet. Cant forget this moment that i had with him. On Tuesday or Wednesday, the class was having this arts and crafts lesson when he wanted to go to the toilet so i brought him there. Then when we were walking, he just went to hold my hand. After that when he came out of the toilet, i told him to lead the way back to the classroom. Then he just gave me this smile and started walking. I just love him (:

3. Samuel

Just today, he came telling me a joke. "Which animal you cant trust?" den because i heard him telling this joke to his frens at the same table during lunch, i of course knew the ans. so i went "Cheetah". after that he started talking to me and asking me if i ate jaguar before, cockroach, etc etc. all sorts of funny things. then Dillon joined in to ask me such questions. hahas. adorable as always.

4. Vera
Oh man this girl is just C.U.T.E. She was the one who interacted with me the most. She would really come sitting on my lap, pulling me here and there, protecting me when Alyssa came hugging me like a teddy bear. Btw, Alyssa is another assistant teacher for class Dingo. And the kids really love her. So do i hahas.

Anyway, you can really see that shes the leader in the class. No matter boy or girl, she interacts with them. Though sometimes she may be a little too talkative, but still she encourages her classmates during games, and tries to comfort some of them when they were afraid to try out somethings. Love her. :D

5. Hans

Our top student for the Bible quiz! He is an intelligent boy and also quite independent. There was one time he came to church himself because his family was not free to bring him over. I hope that he will apply what he has learnt during this camp in his life, as a child of God. That he can pray and ask God for what he needs,but not what he wants. That he will continue to grow in what he knows about our Lord Jesus.

I can go on telling you about the rest of the people in class because all of them are adorable, whether they are quiet or not. I just love them all. But time is short, so i will just mention the few.

One of the more encouraging and comforting things to see during this camp, was the children who were not Christians, raising their hands indicating that they want Jesus in their lives. Auntie Sarah and Rebecca did a great job teaching them more about Him and sharing the Gospel. You may think that we may only share the nice things of being a Christian to them and leave the "not nice" parts out, so as to "psycho" them or something. But i can say confidently, that we did share the Gospel in full to them, and thank God that they accepted Him into their lives.

My hope for them would be that they would continue living their lives as children of God and that God would lead and guide them through, just as He is doing in our lives.

With all the happenings this year, it really brings great comfort to me that God is indeed at work.
I need not worry that much about where i would go after JC (or even after death), i need not worry about not having food or clothing for the day. This year has really been the year that my faith in God grows and indeed all glory is to God and God alone.

Although i know that you may not really understand what or why ive been saying such things, I would like to say to you that our God is real. He is not a force, a lucky charm, or some thinking that some people made up to use as a crutch. He is a God we can relate to, He is Someone we can trust in. Just by looking in the mirror, you can just marvel at how He created you. Your intricate body; complicated DNA making up your nose, your character, the colour of your eyes etc, your organs and cells all functioning well together even though in huge numbers.
And just by looking at the whole universe, you can just be awed at how such a place can just be spoken into existence.
If you are really interested, question and continue to search for answers, for there will always be answers when it comes to our faith in Jesus.
If you are not, i hope that you will begin to question yourself when it comes to where you would go after you leave this world. For what is at stake here is eternal life.
