Tis' the season again when Christmas is in the air...Dec 25th is now only days away, but already celebration parties have been and are being held here, there, everywhere. My first started last Sat on the streets, as I pulled in some of my Bahasa church members to help out at the street feeding programme I minister at weekly. It was the 1st time we did it all in Bahasa M'sia; right from the worship songs to the sharing of God's Word, which I delivered by my own testimony of how i and my whole family was saved 8 yrs ago, during the crisis of my husband's cancer, thru receiving Jesus Christ, God's most precious gift to mankind...
indeed every Christmas i can't thank God enuf, realising that if not for the birth of Jesus, it would be impossible for man to be reconciled to God, and we would all be condemned into the pits of hell, as we actually deserve...but becoz of Him who was born at Christmas, a way has been opened for everyone to walk right into heaven... praise God for the Hope...
and so in that little dirty alley, on that Sat, i thank God that even in such a place , the message of Hope went out to the poor in spirit,the hungry, homeless, hurting.. for even if no one in the world cares for these who are looked down as the very dregs of society, God still loves them, and God still calls everyone to repentance and everlasting life - He is ever in the business of saving souls, no matter how wretched they are, and how privileged i am to do my little part to lead them to Him...bringing Hope to the hopeless; that's what Christmas is all about...
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son (Jesus) that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life - John 3:16
