Greatest and Great Gifts

Christmas is near..... It's a festive time to share the goodness and wonderful gifts with our loved ones. Christmas is more than just a holiday. It's the day our Lord Jesus Christ came, not as a strong man but like all human, a helpless baby. We all know that eventually He grew up and became the blameless sacrificial Lamb to die for our sins. The coming of Jesus is definitely the greatest gift for all mankind. However, not all have heard or experienced this gift. We need to share this gift.

I give thanks to other many great gifts. Gift of good health. Gift of laughter. Gift of sight and hearing. Gift of wonderful friends. Gift of all sorts of emotions. Personally, the gift of me coming to Cambodia is one of the most treasured and blessings from the Lord. I came 'untrained' but yet the Lord has provided ways and means to accomplish my tasks. I came with 3 concerns. Yet each concern was slowly answered. I give thanks that my parents are taken good care of. I give thanks for His financial providence. And the last concern is one that I wish but dare not request. 28 yrs of waiting.... Maybe it's time... or maybe it's more waiting. Whatever it is, I know God has given us the best Gift and He will not hide any other good gifts that are good for us.


A reminder from the Lord.... : )

I FIX MY EYES ON YOU (editted 13 Mar 2007)

Verse:
I bow before Your throne
My eyes are not fixed on You
My eyes are troubled
My mind is distracted from You, Lord

Pre-Chorus:
In Your word it is said
That everything has its time and seasons
The coming of Spring time after winter is assured
But when such time fails
I may not understand
But I know the Lord is here

Chorus:
Patiently wait for You my Lord
Trusting in You simply because
You're my Lord, the Creator of my life
And I will lift my hands to You
In such times I'll sing a new song to You
Of Your faithfulness to me
I bow before Your throne
I fix my eyes on You
