Christmas already?

Wow. Tomorrow's Christmas already!
Time passes so fast, really thankful this year's mood is much better than last year's. Things are looking a little more upbeat. But even as I thank God for this year and the good things that are happening, it also reminds me that we should not take things for granted and not to rely on earthly conditions and our feelings about things to dictate where and what to do with our lives. Easier said than done, for sure.
Tonight we have a Christmas party at home, my dear aunt Iris having invited the extended families. I'm sure it will be a pig-out with lots of Turkey and ham and fried beehoon and chicken wings - truly a mix of east and west.
Tomorrow we have 2 Christmas services in church, one at 9 and one at 11am. Thereafter, to Andrew and Maureen's for another pig out lunch. Looking forward to that!
3pm tomorrow we get back to church to set up the sound systems for Boxing Day Carnival (26th 10am to 3pm). Lots of wires to run and equipment to set up. Really looking forward to the carnival. Exciting!!
I'll get a chance to be dunked in the "pool of Bethesda" as well, at 1240pm.
Many exciting entertainment programmes in the sanctuary/synagogue as well. Really grateful to everyone who volunteered to perform. Praying for good weather.

Have a God-blessed Christmas!!
