Oh...Xmas is around the corner. A few of my church members asked me to join the Xmas play...but hmm...I rejected. Actually, the reason is, I m not very close to those who took part in the play. Although I've attended this church for like, more than 2 yrs now...my conversations with the youths are just 'Hi, how are u?' and 'bye'. So, I wanted to avoid from taking part, but they urged me to.
Okla...nvm. No harm trying. I'll be singing for the Lord, n I can't just run away just because I m afraid I don't have friends to talk to during the practices.
=) during my first practice, I still remember, a guy named Phillip sat beside me n introduced himself. Hehe. He's definitely one friendly person. Hmm...then from him, I get to know another friend, Brennan. Not bad, not bad. Soon, there was this little girl who had to stand in front of me for the play. She's one sweet, adorable girl, yet noisy at times. # ) but it's nice. Without her, the play wont be fun. Since she's only 9 yrs old...aiyah. Close one eye la. By the way, her name is Denise. Haha. She always makes us laugh cause she's talkative. very cute.
From Denise, I got to know her younger sis, Joy. Oh, another person. Joanne. Jessica, her elder sis is close to me, but I never talked to Joanne before. Weird. Guess I just seldom notice her when I attend church. There are always too many people walking n talking. Joanne was supposed to stand beside me for the play (on my left). Another young girl was also beside me on my left, Yee Jia.
Geez...im abit confused now. Wow...can anyone notice what's going on here? During every practice, we chit chat, talk craps, played tricks n laughed. How enjoyable it was, I must say. That is how a stranger becomes a friend. Isn't it wonderful?
I must say, that was the best Xmas gift God has given me. A circle of friends. I ve never celebrated Xmas in church before, and now I m participating in a play with so many friends. It makes me realized one thing. Sometimes, when God is trying to help us, we dont realize it...n we keep pushing the 'help' away cause of fear or certain factors. Just trust in Him n He will lead the way for us...
