One word
that can have very opposite meanings in different situations is "contagious." If it is used with the name of a disease, it will
mean making the situation more serious, and we want to prevent it from
happening. But sometimes it can mean
passing our emotions and feelings to other people. In this case, contagious can make either
positive or negative results depending on what is conveyed.
The second
Sunday of June was the first day our Summer Choir sang for service during this
summer. We had 8 new faces (currently
non-choir members) and total number was 17 in the choir. As a result, we had to hurry to make more
copies of music during rehearsal, and I promised to make at least 20 copies for
next Summer Choir Sunday.
We are
believers of what we cannot see. We
cannot see the presence of God. We
cannot see the love between God and us, and between each other. But, we believe in God and feel His love from
the result of what He has us feel and believe.
Our joy and happiness while praising God is the evidence of all these
undeniable truths.
I hope we
are going to be a group of believers that is highly contagious with happiness,
abundant love to share, and strong belief towards God and His people. I hope that our various musical activities
will be one of the leading causes of this positive atmosphere from now on at
First Presbyterian Church.
