Win a Dark Chocolate Bunny

Sorry Joyce and LL =P I have not yet read your posts, but I will sometime this week!!

So what's my story? (morning glory)

There were once three sisters. Because I'm learning mandarin, let's call them Da jie, Er jie and Xiao mei. When in high school, Da jie's best friend was the daughter of a pastor. Let's call her ... Jenny. So Jenny invited Da jie to church, and she got involved. She then encouraged Er jie to come too... who also became involved! And they invited Xiao mei to come. She came sporadically from the age of 8 =P But when she reached uni (after HSC, because ma and pa didn't want her getting distracted from her studies), she started going pretty regularly. That's the "how i physically came" bit.

Why did I come to church? I guess it really stemmed from this... intuitive feeling that there was more to life than what I knew, the... "normal" life of school, work, retire, die. As Solomon said, "Meaningless!" So I guess I came to church wondering whether God was the missing ... cornerstone of my life. And even though this is 4.5 years later, I still don't quite understand how he fits into my life, what he is to me.

What does "my God" really mean? My saviour, my leader, my comfort, my mentor, my teacher? More? So to try to understand better what "my God" really means/ stands for/ encompasses, I have started reading a book on the various names of God.

Next week... a ripping tale with concubines, beheadings, Xerxes and Mordecai.

First person to email me the correct book of the Bible that this RIPPING tale is from wins Carol's Lindt Easter bunny. Dark chocolate. She hasn't eaten it yet, so it's time to help it hop off the pantry shelf! Hee hee.

See y'all on Saturday!
