Christmas - Unity in Love

It's been a very exciting Christmas for Destiny this year! We performed at a church Christmas dinner on 11 Dec and also had 2 public performances in Orchard (ION on 20 Dec and Forum on 23 Dec).

It was truly amazing to see the love of Christ displayed through all the performers and helpers at each of these events. Most of them didn't know each other as they had participated in Destiny Music Awards in different years. But each time when we got together for rehearsals and the actual performances, not only did they make friends with each other very quickly (I overheard some of them talking about going for a movie together - haha!), the unity of the Body of Christ really shone through whenever we prayed.

At the church dinner, even though we'd been rehearsing the whole afternoon and were mostly hungry, everyone just got so caught up praying together that we must have been in the nursery for over half an hour interceding for the guests and the whole programme, oblivious to the fact that the dinner had already started and that we could have gone out to eat!

Then before each of the Orchard performances, I invited everyone to pray for someone they hadn't known before and it was so touching to see how they were ministering to one another even though they were of different ages and came from different schools/churches. On 23 Dec in particular, we also had a children's band and even the little ones (youngest was 7yo) joined in to pray with the older gor gor's and jie jie's!

I feel so privileged to have been able to serve with such talented, passionate and dedicated young people! It is very clear that many more of them have already caught the vision of Destiny and are in fact starting to realise it through serving at such events.

Thank God for the opportunity to be used in such a glorious way! All glory to Him!!
