Christmas and the Joy it Brings

 
Christmas is a favorite time of the year. Children and adults alike look forward to this season with so much excitement. This is because no other occasion can compare with the joy of Christmas. The main reason for the joy is of course Christ, the very reason for the the season. Without Christ, there is no reason to celebrate Christmas. So, we ought to thank God for He gave us Jesus and because of this we have Christmas, the day of commemorating the birth of our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the reason why we should take every Christmas as one important occasion to celebrate because it is celebrating the birth of our Savior.

The past Christmas has been really joyful to many people so that even if  we are now on the third day of the new year 2011 the memories of the past Christmas remain in our hearts. The bonuses we received have all been spent but no regrets. After all, we received them because we have to spend them for the season.  The Christmas parties brought so much fun and happiness. Friends and families have had the chance to have sweet fellowship amidst the bountiful food they shared together and this is worth all the money spent. The funny games, the exciting exchanging of gifts, the generous gift giving and the happy greetings gave so much cheers.  The past Christmas has indeed brought many  beautiful memories to keep. We could only thank technology for giving us the chance to capture and keep photos and videos of these wonderful memories. As we go over the photos, we could still feel the happiness the season brought us.

Now that  2011 has  started to roll, our eyes can look forward to the next Christmas. It may seem too early but time passes so swiftly and without you knowing it December is here again and each one is busy again preparing for Christmas 2011.

One Lovely Memory of Summertime

Today is the 4th day of June in this lovely year of 2010. As June came in, I noticed there have been rains at night and some occasional rain showers during day time. The temperature has obviously cooled down and I think we are really about to bid summer goodbye.

Despite the scorching heat this summer has brought us, I could not deny that this summer has good memories to keep. As always, one of those good memories is the one spent in the beach with my beloved family and chosen friends. Sleeping on the shore with only an old-fashioned mat to protect our back from the sand is one thrilling experience of a lifetime. The sounds of the waves went louder as the night went deeper but surprisingly those did not disturb us at all for they were like unique melodies of the night. The gentle moonlight was so endearing. It was like a big lampshade in the midst of that dark night. It was one big assurance that God was watching us all through the dimly lighted surrounding. With that, we all slept tightly on that lovely night for there was nothing to fear.

I really do love the beach and will always keep the happy and peaceful memories it gives.

Daddy, My Super Hero

In the eyes of a child, his Dad is his superhero. He is someone he feels so secured with and someone he needs when the going gets tough. A child considers his Dad as someone who could protect him from any harm and could defend him at all cost. A child has such a high expectation on the strength and power of his Dad so that his Dad’s presence gives him the feeling of safety and pride.

A child believes his Dad is someone who could do for him the jobs his Mom could not. When he needs someone to fix his toys, his Dad is there to be his skillful repairman. When he needs someone to play with, his Dad is there to be his enduring playmate. When he needs someone to carry him when the walking has been too long, it is his Dad who serves as his strong carrier. Indeed his Dad is someone he could always count on…. a real superhero.

A Dad’s importance in the life of a child is not in anyway inferior to that of a Mother. A Dad has a very important role to play. He is a stronghold that keeps the child’s heart confident and secure. It is therefore the duty of every Dad to spend more time with their children so that as they grow they will not feel deprived of father’s love and protection. More than these, fathers should serve as good examples to their children. They should be the model of godliness so that their kids will grow in the love and knowledge of the Lord.

"Sing Me a Lullaby",

Have you heard the song, Sing Me a Lullaby? When I first heard this I was really fascinated. It was Lea Salonga who was singing the song and she rendered it beautifully. The song goes like this:

All I see is that I don't see what's ahead of me
I'm afraid my life will never be all I hope for in the end
All I know is that I don't know where the road will go
If I dream, then will I find it so
Will tomorrow be my friend?

Sing me a lullaby, sing me to sleep tonight
Sing me a tender lullaby cause all my heart can do is cry.
Help me compose my soul, quietly take control
Sing me a lullaby and tell me I'm your child.

All my plans are falling through
And I don't understand
Yes, I know, my world is in your hand
But won't you tell me once again?"

It's the child's frail heart that sings in this song! It's about the child's fears and worries on the uncertainties of his future and how he finds the much needed comfort and assurance on his mother's lullaby. The meaningful message was effectively delivered in one lovely melody. The melodious progression of the rhythm perfectly fitted the well structured verses of the song. I researched who sang the original version of the song and found out it was Twila Paris. I listened to her and it delighted my heart. She’s got a clear, powerful voice that will leave your heart fully satisfied. I know this will delight you too so I encourage you mothers to buy your copy so that you too could sing and teach this sweet lullaby to your children.
