CHRISTMAS with THANKS

In the midst of trials and problems - God has promised us strength to keep us going. I am to testify that I have experienced it time and time again. His strength is very real in my life. The presence of dearest friends around me is one of the so-many-ways God provides me strength to press on - these friends who love God very much, alot of times they have been great role models to me in their Godliness and faith in Christ. So I thank you(s) (my friends) who have been here for me, seen me cry, seen me go crazy, seen me get cranky, etc., you know who you are. :)

One of the best things that has happened to me, which I always acknowledge, since I was ever born into this world, is my family. Supporting me through thick and thin, praying for me endlessly. Also to know my Daddy got baptised this year, what an undescribable joy! Not being able to be with them in this time of Christmas (again) is quite saddening me. If God wasn't our foundation in life, I guess I would feel hopeless right now. But because He came to earth, died and raised from the death, now lives in each and everyone's heart, He bonds us together regardless of how far we are apart. I truly hang on to that, knowing God holds us in the palm of his loving hand, we are forever united.

Anyway, should call an early night tonight, as we are off to Jervis Bay early tomorrow morning (6 AM), gotta get fit.

Merry Christmas to all - sing your heart out !
