Its Almost Christmas!
What's it all about.
Someone told me this story in Camp, re -written by me:
" A young girl Kate, age 5 had been staying with a foster home with her siblings of 5 for 2 years. Her mom is in mental home and her dad is in prison. Kate had never met her parents before.
The mother decided to send presents to each of her children and they waited in anticipation, especially the little Kate.
Christmas came and one by one they started to open their gifts.
Michael, the eldest got a toy plane.
Mary got a doll.
Kevin was given a truck.
Karen got a bear that said " I love you" when you pressed it's tummy.
Kate waited for her turn and unwrap the big box.
Layered by Layer she opened it. Her little face beaming with joy. This was the 1st time mummy had given her some thing.
The box was empty except for a little note that said,
"I hate you and will never forgive you for being born."
Poor Kate, her little heart broke. She screamed and screamed and ran up the stairs into her room.
It took her foster parents 5 hours to calm her down and pray for her.
So what happened to her?
By the grace of God she is now a healthy 18 year old. Spreading the word of God to other people that were in her shoes.

Point is do we often do things that we think are trivial?
Just a simple note can change a person's life.
And in our daily lives do we choose to live the fate that we think is given to us or do we live by faith?
You decide.
Merry Christmas
