Christmas preparation in fact on the most busiest holiday in the world yet many don't believe in it. I was reminded on being in m- community and it was not even look like a month of celebrating the coming of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, because there were nothing that people do except sitting around in town chewing the Mirah, this is a kind of plant that they chew it and they get high from it. Christmas was not shown by neither by decorations and how people react in that town. One day one of the M-guy greeted me by saying Merry Christmas and that really puts me in that deep questioning mood, how can he say that but yet they don't hold the true meaning as we do and celebrate it.
Christmas in Hilo, has been so amazing to be with the IYAA group and to celebrate Christmas with them. On the 25th we have our small groups presentations where by it was very interesting to see and hear many different songs about the birth of Jesus and dramas and skids. I praise God for giving the opportunity to share his word in this gathering. I shared out of Matthew 2:1-12.( appointed time by God, God's only gift, God must be worshiped)
On the 26th we have the gathering for all our chuukese churches here on the Big Island and still I am amazed by the creativity of the groups in their songs and dramas about Christmas. The IYAA presented the one called " Break Through" this is attributed to the fact that Christ's coming into the World breaks through many stronghold-( human wisdom, human tradition, power of sin and many many more...)
Our celebrating Christmas is truly pointing to the fact that He is coming soon and we are living in the full anticipation of his glorious return. O what a beautiful day that will be?
Upon the corner! MORE TO COME!!!!!
Psalm 147:10 His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior; 11 the LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.
