Last night went to Majestic Riverside Hotel to attend a Charity Christmas Concert entitled the Gift of Love. It was held by The Kuching Church Music Association to raise fund for Social Welfare Council of Sarawak to help those people who has special needs.
I went there early because Lucas had his choir practice at 6pm... therefore i found a good seat, which was the second row after the RM50 ticket's seat. Sit down and listen to the voice of choir... i felt calm...
It had a amazing beginning where the KCMA's choir presented a Christmas song and then followed by the choir of youth and children. Suddenly there were angels coming in from the back, side and middle of the hall... They danced gracefully to the stage in front... And they went down again to the back... Just when i thought the song was finished, suddenly all the angels coming in again throwing sweets to every audience. What a shock! Everyone was busy grabbing the sweets from the chair and floor. This made the children happy!
After that there were some songs too from Methodist Church combine with other churches... Then all the audience sang 4 Christmas songs... This part touches me a lot where i can feel that everyone in the hall is praising our Lord together! The voice of God's children was so sweet and pleaseful~ I closed my eyes as if I'm in the heaven where all the diciples singing the hymns. By that time, no more tears but only rejoice in everyone's heart.
After that there was a short sermont from Reverend. The message was presented in a humor way. It was simple yet meaningful. The gift of love... Have you ever receive the gift of life? It is free and meant specially for everyone of you. Others cant open and receive the gift for you. Although the gift is the best for you, but if you do not want it, then how can you receive it? It is just the same as if one day a friend gives you a sweet that you never eat before, telling you this is the new sweet release by xxx company, if you do not take out your hand to get and open up to eat it, you will not know the amazing taste of that sweet. So my fellow friends, if you open up your heart and receive the gift of life which designed for you, i'm sure you'll truly understand the meaning of Christmas!
The concert ended with a grand song-- You raise me up by the choir of KCMA + children choir while the youth presented a dance when the choir sang!The song was so touching and the fund raised that night are RM150,000.
