Breathe....breathe

I cannot believe December is almost coming to an end. And Christmas is next week! Oh my goodness! What happened to December?

The last three weeks have been crazy. I went for youth camp in Rompin. It was the best camp I ever had. The speaker was superb! His sharings are all still etched in my head. I can remember every message he preached and every joke he told. I can only say God did a really deep thing in the hearts of the young people. Wednesday night was powerful, with the youth ending with one-to-one confession to their leaders. I believe this really give the leaders an opportunity to work with these youth in a closer way. There is now accountability which I always feel that is lacking in the lives of the young people. They are so much into seeking independence that they are almost not accountable to anyone, including their parents. Alot of the stuff they shared are stuff that they dun even share with their parents.

Then was my last-minute Christmas shopping on the following Monday. I was so proud of myself though. I only spent two hours but i managed to get gifts for W, his mom, some friends and kids. BUT I spent a total of $200!

Then came the practice for the special song item in 7&8. I left the practice on Monday night wondering if we ever gonna sound right. The 2nd practice on Thursday gave me a little hope but there is still alot of work on blending and harmony. Some of us really sound like we are going to pop a few blood vessels. Praying really hard that tomorrow night's practice will redeem us.

Looking forward to seeing some old friends at the Christmas Eve party. It will be quite a get-together.

Hope I will be able to blog more regularly from now. I hope...
