Someday you'll know why I wasn't meant for you (lyrics of the song posted)

Dear all,

Merry Christmas!  This past weekend has been very eventful at church and with friends and family.  I am so happy this Christmas!  Adrian was right, Christmas IS my favourite time of year, even though it is also very busy.  (oh yes, I talked to Adrian over the phone a few days ago, as a friend.  Don't worry I'm not going to go out with him again, he knows that we weren't meant for each other).

Last minute I got pulled into the Christmas play last Friday because Gloria cough cough couldn't make it.  But it was all part of God's plan, because I really wanted to be in the play in the first place but due to working with children I could not.  But turns out we were able to also bring the kids to watch the play and the song "Never Alone" my sister said I sang it so well that I sounded like the radio!

Also, we sang the song "You Hold Me Now" and I was looking straight at Jen when I sang it cuz I think God meant that song for her since she was going through a rough time.

I was successfully a "good bully" (what an oxymoron) because Gloria's part included being a bully.  And ppl said I was really funny with my evil laugh. (Poor Cecilia, I poured fake water on her head) LOL  All the actors and actresses did really well and overall it was great, with a few confusions but oh well.

Aaron's house party was SO FUN.  Shows that you don't need alcohol to have a great time.  We did White Elephant Gift Exchange and some of the gifts were hilarious.  Karl got face mask, then someone stole it from him, then he got an empty shoebox that said "salvation from God" (turns out there was a USB in there hidden but we didnt' know at first) (Nice one Julio) and Josh Mok ended up wanting the nail polish.  Pui Yun (a guy) got earrings... and by the way I met Pui Yun 10 years ago... this is the first time I seen him again in ten years.

Something special is that I got to share the gospel with Pui Yun. I told him the Christmas story and the basics of Christianity.  I remember when I was in grade 9 I prayed that he would become a Christian, and funny enough, 10 years later God allowed me to evangelize to him.  He is still not a Christian but I invited him to church.  Turns out Aaron knew him from Christian Wushu Fellowship but I didnt know Aaron back then.  I kind of want to tell Jeff about this (Jeff was my first boyfriend and knew Pui Yun as well, because Pui Yun ended up dating his ex Susan)

Yes, a complicated life.  But didn't Jesus also have a complicated life and loved complicated people.  Yes Sirreee.

God is good.  God provided for my finances because I get paid to be Urbana bus captain and we also fundraised money from the Christmas cards.  Arabic church also gave me 90 dollars just for Christmas and helping for one night.  Amazing!  money runs out fast though... but in Jan. I'll be starting an additional job at Canadian Association of Wound Care.  I pray that I will be able to finish all my schoolwork and church work well. CAWC said they will be flexible with my schedule so hopefully that's gonna be ok.

Thank you GOD!!! THANK YOU JESUS!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
