Christmas Celebration @ ECC Box Hill 博士山宣道堂圣诞节庆祝会

The story goes that some time ago a man punished his 5-year-old daugther for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tide and became more even upset when the child used the gold paper to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box to her father the next morning and said, This is for you, Daddy. The father was embarrassed by his overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty. He spoke to her in a harch manner, Don't you know, young lady, when you give someone a present there's suppose to be something inside the package? The little looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, Oh Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was full. The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his little girl, and he begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger. An accident took the life of the child only a short time later and it is told that the father kept that gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. And whenever he was discouraged or faced difficulty problem he would open the box and take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love f the child who put it there.
In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given a golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.
