New Year's Eve 2007

Shalom.

We attended a fellowship/party at my parent's house on New year's eve 2007. This was the first time my wife and I were not in a church service on new year's eve. It was weird, but by the time we approached the new year, we knew that that night was ordered by God (I know it sounds like a cliche, but it is absolutely true). That night, there were 17 adults (consisting mostly young couples) in attendance. The number of children was about 12 (mostly under the age of six). As the time approached midnight, the priest of the house, my father, gave a word on faith to those in attendance. He then asked if anyone wished to say a few words concerning what they were thankful for. And after that, all the men spoke, as if on queue. Then my mother spoke and shared her feelings about the evening, and how we as a group was in God's order. She then requested words from the women. The women spoke and shared their thoughts. (they seemed to talk longer than their male counterpart ^_^) My wife was the last woman to speak, and she led the group in a moment of praise and worship unto God, as was right. We all were very thankful and in awe of God's power and grace.

We are all looking forward to the next get together! :-)
