Each of this item represents of memory.  A sweet memory.

  

 

Anyway, 2015 is coming. Time to get serious with the purpose of life God has given me.
So, get ready, world! By God’s grace, I am gonna turn you upside down!
Either one of these characters well symbolizes my rising!

Peace on earth goodwill toward men

Dinner after church service as usual.
One of the rare occasion where by my cg mates gave in to my request.
Food court at Esplanade Exchange. My favorite place of dinner since it has much space and not too far away from Suntec.
Need to encourage them to have dinner here more often.

Staff lunch on Christmas Eve.
The company I work in is so happening.
Almost every month there will be a special event.
”We work hard and we play hard,” my boss announced.
And so, we had a banquet yesterday on Christmas Eve.
Free meal. Who doesn’t want.

  

  

  

  

Somehow I was appointed to share a little bit background of Christmas.
Here I was, giving speech on Lord Jesus’ birth, Christmas tree, log cake, and shepherds.
A colleague then translated it in Chinese.
Both of us really resembled Pastor Kong and his Chinese interpreter on stage.

  

My hungry colleagues. Well, our lunch started late, after all.
Am looking forward to working on Friday.

Another round of family function.
Every year we celebrate the birthday of the twin boys in our big relatives.
At the same time, there is plenty gift exchange among family members too.

  

  

  

Food. Every celebration begins with having food first.
After that…

The celebration started! All the kids went forward to blow candles and cut cakes.

  

Happy family and relatives are happy people.

  

   

And there you go… gift exchange among us all.
Thank God for making me part of this great family.

Don’t be afraid
Fear = worries = anxiety = nervousness
Some are afraid of losing, health, job, marriage. God doesn’t want us to be afraid.

Luke 1:30
1. Don’t be afraid. Only believe.
Difficult things happen . Yet, God wants us to trust Him. He isn’t gonna disappoint us.
With God, nothing is impossible. Can God bless our marriage and bless our home? Certainly.

2. Don’t be afraid. Only obey.
Matt 1:20
Just obey the Lord and His word. When we obey God, His promise will come to pass.

3. Don’t be afraid. Only follow.
Luke 2:10-11
When we follow Lord Jesus, He will bring us to our destiny. He is specialized in changing lives.
1 Pet 3:14-15.

Dr. Robi Sonderegger once taught CHC members, “How do we apply second law of thermodynamics in relationship? In order to kill a relationship, you simply just do.. absolutely nothing about it.” (something along this line)
Time is like a fertilizer. Relationship is like a plant.
Spend no time on relationship. It will die off naturally.
Spend much time on relationship. It will grow and thrive.
Hence, it is really a good idea to keep the Connexion going strong by spending time with them all.
After not seeing them for one month, finally I met these great people yesterday.

  

  

Cooking and eating.
We spent much time on discussing a very important issue. Guess what it is?
Money.
We discussed a lot on credit cards and how to best utilize them.
Knowledge is power.
Hence, it is good to share information with friends.

  

I’m KIM. A wonderful place to dine and have fellowship.
We even managed to take photo with the owner, Elim Chew.
Shall visit this place again one day.

Had a great weekend yesterday and today. Attended the church service twice.
Yesterday was my main church service. This morning was for accompanying a new friend.

  

  

  

Had dinner last night at Podi, Raffles City B1.
Our Christmas dinner after church service.
Their sweet potato fries is really sweet. Not too oily too.
Their fettucine sauce tastes great.

  

  

Did some gift exchange with cg friends.
Want to know what is inside those wrapped presents? Well, check out my FB page, ok?

The cast of Christmas drama 2014: The Night I Met the Watchmaker.
More or less, it runs on the theme of relationship and family.
Similar to previous Christmas production Because It’s Christmas 2012 and Christmas at Pooperwick 2013.
The drama production makes me think a lot for my family.
Well, let’s see what I can do for them next year.
It was phenomenal drama. They are super hardworking and professional!

Sweet. Really a sweet thing.
Perhaps these represent my two kids in the future?

Luke 1:39-45
God gave us Christmas to renew our experience with Jesus.
There are several notable characters surrounding the first Christmas.

1.) Elizabeth
She was full of expectation. Even the voice of Mary alone made her be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Expectation leads us to Jesus.
Phil 1:20
Because of our earnest expectation and hope, we will not be ashamed.

2.) Simeon
Luke 2:25-32
Revelation leads us to Jesus. Faith comes by hearing the word of revelation.
Revelation: Vision and dream. Once the Holy Spirit gives us the vision and dream, we should incubate it with prayer.
We need to persist in revelation.

3.) Anna
Luke 2:36-38
Consecration leads us to Jesus. Anna kept her heart close to God. She prayed and fasted a lot.
Consecration is more than just surrendering. It is a transfer of all we are to Christ for active service.
Consecration also is to partner with the Holy Spirit to reach out to souls,since God is the Redeemer.
Joshua 3:5
God will do mighty wonder for us if we consecrate ourselves to Him.
