Day 3- 3rd december

LOVE

Love it was that made us.
And it was love that save us.
Love was God's plan when he made man.
God's divine nature is LOVE.
Born of God's love we must love him.
That's why he made is to love him.
But only when we love all men.
Can we partake of his love.
But only when we love all men.
Can we partake of his love.


The majority went to the street kids home today, with faces, hands, legs painted..

The excited kids drawing on each other faces

This hymn came to my mind when i was asked by a couple of girls to write the word love and to draw a heart on their hands or faces. These kids receive no love from their family, yet they came to me and ask me to write that word on their hands. I was thinking..Why of all words do they want me to write love.

Here we are strangers to them in their world, yet they readily give us 101% of their love to us. Like the commandment Jesus gave :" Love one another as i have love you!!" To love everyone with all your heart and soul no matter how that person is to you. Love your enemies even though they may still hurt you.

We are all born luckier then them, yet compared to us, they are able give Love easily to others. what they only wanted was to have our time and company and to them its the best gift for christmas for them. Seeing the Love they give us made me touched, including my brother..

Even though today was the first time they actually have a television set with many channels, sponsored by the thai tv network, many didnt really cared and didnt really watch the tv. When the tv people went off, the kids were asked to thank them. Yet when we went off, a whole lot of them started running as fast as they could after the bus just to wave at us for the last time.

Material things doesnt attract them, its more of the human touch. Its really the opposite of what is happening here in Singapore.

Just feel that i should really appreciate the people around me, just the way the street kids appreciate us. They all knew that we would not be back again, yet to them, they give their all inorder to make us feel loved by them.

Its really a wonderful experience to be able receive Love as we give Love. It just shows how lucky I am to have a family behind me to love me.

Its really amazing to see how God works in those street kids, to let us learn the true meaning of Love. He loves us with all his heart, yet sometimes, we fail to see his love therefore rejecting him. Love is only a simple word, yet in this world Love means alot. Without Love, we will just feel hopeless..
