Yesterday was fun.
Really sang our hearts out, enjoyed every single moment.
The first house was my house.
Reasons? My dad is a pastor and my house is next door so that explains it
We went to Care Villa, it's an old folks home.
The old people there, some were happy and cheerful.
Some were quite depress.
Especially when i took the initiative to asked an old lady how long she stayed.
She stare at me blankly and reply i don't know.
She seems depress and sad.
Then i ask her are you happy, she just nod her head but showing a sad face to me.
Maybe her children have dump her at the old folks home.
Conclusion: Never ever neglect your parents. Even though you don't have the time to spend with them but at least let them stay with you. Better than putting them at the old folks home and not seeing them everyday.
I will never put my parents in the old folks home!!!
It's kinda sad to see part of the people in this condition.
Even we as christians, there are times we neglect the people who really need God's love in their love.
We just care about how we feel, what we encounter, but how about the people out there who needs comfort and care?
This is an eye opener and a reminder to always be thankful to God even though i have to face tough situations and that i felt God's love in my life.
We should not just go at specific events like Christmas, chinese new year or easter but a continuous process.
There were some old folks who enjoy our carols even though they may not understand what we are singing. They usually speak chinese, hock chiew or hokkien.
But as what i observe there was a lady who was clapping her hands when we sang.
She is blind but she enjoyed. Another lady who cried because she was touched by us. It brings me joy to see these people's response!
Besides, we went to the Chee family's house, Rumah Wawasan, Yaw Bia's house, Megan's house, The Har family, and others.
Tonight will be even more houses, so that means more fun and even later.
But caroling is not just about fun and how well you sing, but is it really from your heart and doing it for God?
May the songs we sing be glorifying to God's name! And it brings joy to the homes we are going!!!
