Even in this special day of Christmas, my sinful nature did not stop. Temptations are still everywhere. When I tried hard to not sin in Christmas (similar to my mother used to tell me not to wash my hair in New Year's Day for it is inappropriate), I was weak and I fell into temptation.
Logically, I would feel guilty and start to hide away from God. That is not what God wanted. I was reminded that I was, am and will always be weak in front of temptation, whenever I dismissed God's power and grace. God reminded me that I am not perfect, and I will never be. Yet He will always be by my side to pick me back whenever I am attacked. He will be patient to wait for me to return to Him in search of strength and power to overcome temptations. My God is wonderful because He is a father with a justice heart. If God wishes, He can just simply remove temptation from my life. But He does not do that. He wants to train me to be stronger than I am now. He does not want to spoiled me from taking away all these temptations, so that I will grow stronger in faith and stand my ground in all situations.
Oh, my Lord is mighty and worthy of all the praises and glory!
I rejoice in my heart always, for my God is my source of Joy.
I will never stop singing and praying!!!
Thank You Jesus for your birth!
