Time now is 2356hrs.
In another 15hrs time I will be performance with Adult Choir of CHC for the first time.
I am so excited that I can't sleep right now. I really hope that the music will touches everyone's heart and warm everyone in their soul.
Now... There are people asking me why I decided to choose to stay in choir instead of joining the orchestra. Actually there is a few reasons behind it.
Practically I don't own a tuba and I can't fulfil the criteria set by the orchestra.
Personally, I don't feel that I should the choir now as I just join them. That will only make me ministry hopping. That is not my style. When I am committed, I will be committed all the way unless things that are more important in life that I need to attend it first. Furthermore, in choir actually train and tune up my listen when I get back to band. And of course, if you can sing, you can play music. That is the theory that I always believe on.
I am not the type of always giving people a straight no for answer. I always accept explaination and at the correct time voice my stand. But that doesn't mean that you can ride onto me and push me anywhere you want to go. That is simply not me. I believe in freedom expression and mutual respect co-existence.
One of my colleague say this "Christian are selfish people. Most of the time they actually only care about themselves. Some of them even declared that god in other religion is actually faked.. "
I got quite upset when I heard this comment. I started asking myself... Why people make such comment? Yes in Ten Commandments it stated that He is the one and only god. But isn't God actually can appeared in any ways He desired to be? Why must that person do such a condemnation? Why can't there be a mutual respect in each other religion? Whichever you think you can actually keep to your belief but you can't force to believe when they don't.
SO DON'T!!
Being christian we have to even be more understanding to the culture of the world. We have to give certain to respect to all. Beside that God is everywhere around us. God is everyone's God.
I don't know why I talked so about believing. Just felt that to certain extent i want to believe in the principle of life, my values of life and what cherish and hope about.
ok end my blog here. Maybe update again on Sunday after concert.
