I went to Wilshire Church last night with my parents for Handel's Messiah Concert. It was a meaningful concert to attend because the concert was held to help the children in North Korea by prividing them with winter blankets and medical supplies. I was also blessed and surprised by the fact that Handel wrote and finished this amazing piece of music in 24 days-starting from August 22nd until September 14th in year 1741 when he was 56 years old. It is evident that it was God who inspired Handel to write Messiah. A Sacred Oratorio by George Frideric Handel...It was really great.
I went to bed around 11 p.m. last night and woke up at 11 a.m. this morning. I had a really good night sleep!! I also had a really relaxed & lazy day. I thank God that He's given me this free time to enjoy and rest. I even got a second to take a picture of myself in my pj robe! kkk I'm staying in my bed reading some books. I stayed home all day long until I got ready to go to church for our weekly youth Saturday meeting. We've been practicing our skit for Christmas service for a while. I hope the kids will understand that we're doing this to glorify God and to celebrate Jesus' birthday. It looks like some of the youth kids are just not wanting to take part in our skit, and it really hurts my heart that the true meaning of CHRISTmas is being lost in the midst of all these busy schedules and things-to-do we have at homes and churches.
God, help us to see You and fix our eyes and hearts on You in this busy CHRISTmastime.
In the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, I pray. Amen.
