So Christmas just passed, its was beautiful- like ever other Christmas.
Mom,Rachel and i were busy as ever in the kitchen preparing for 24,25, and 26th of Dec.
And i made cranberry and orange almond pudding... It turned out OK, just a little sour because of the cranberries.
So, Christmas is over. Everyone has been asking me what i got for Christmas. And i didn't receive any presents at all, like every other year. We just don't practice present exchanging at home. Honestly, i don't know how Santa comes into the picture during Christmas when its all about Jesus.
Christmas for me its a time to reflect that Jesus came to earth, humbly, lowly in a the form of man.
To save the world and take away all my sins and everyone's sins. So, i'm rather delighted to go to church
and celebrate Christmas that way. Then just wishing everyone merry Christmas. Its fulfilling to see everyone in church so excited to come and praise God.
So, now its the last week of the year, how are we going to spend it?
I like to ponder about what i did for this whole one year and how i want to spend my next whole year.
I would want to receive it with open arms and with gladness. God knows how good and bad i have been this year. However, i pray that the Lord makes me wiser, stronger emotionally and mentally.
I pray that whatever obstacle is placed for me, i can overcome it. I pray i learn to be more full of grace,
and learn to love others as they are. I also hope i can change into a better person, learn to be patient, and forgiving and stop expecting so much from others. =)
How are you going to welcome the year?
Have a great new year.
