Rachel here...who am i? Hmmm...that's a question i never really know how to answer.
All i can say is i'm a child of God journeying through this road called life with my finest blessings - my family, friends and folks i bump into along the way.
Who i am don't matter. What does matter is that we connect and encourage each other along our different paths that lead to the same destination -
Our Father face to face!
So ewe (pronounced 'You' meaning lamb; the meaning of my name) see....it's about the little (n big) things in life that connect us to one another (unity in diversity) and bring us closer to God.
Ephesians 4:4-7
"We are all one body, we have the same Spirit, and we have all been called to the same glorious future.
There is only one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
and there is only one God and Father, who is over us all."
Make yourself at home, voice your thoughts...i'd love to hear from you!
Love n peace out!

The Season That Embraces
Christmas is in the air. In Singapore, the season is marked by rain, donning of coats and shawls (especially during church service), ads of t.v. specials, sale signs, and X'mas Jingles.
But i really like this season. I feel like it kind of hugs you. You know...snuggling under the blankie at night, having a good cuppa coffee or tea almost anytime of the day, warm familiar tunes that keeps ringing in your head...it's like everything gives you a big, warm hug!
And maybe it feels like that because it's kinda like God, the Maker hugged us people, His creation by...wrapping Himself in human skin. God, who is love itself, was born and lived amongst us.
Do we need to wonder any longer why this season then is all about loving, forgiving, reconciling, giving wrapped gifts to people we love...and even perfect strangers at times? :)
And soon after this hug from God, He grants us newness through a new year...a fresh start, a new hope!
So i'd like to end the year by looking back (writing the stuff i missed out on), embracing God for His goodness. And then looking forward (yey!), embracing, dreaming what could be because of my God's greatness! I hope to blog something at least once every two days snug under my blankie...hearing the raindrops pitter patter...having a hot cuppa coffee or tea beside me...and listening (and bopping...ok maybe singing really out of tune at the top of my lungs) to warm X'mas tunes...just being crazy happy...embracing this season aptly named Christmas! :)

Rachel Eric, 2008.
Each of us should live a life stirring enough to start a movement...We should love unquenchably,dream unfalteringly, and work unceasingly.
