Well... The Day before Saturday was a Public Holiday, Good Friday.
Yup its the time where Christians all over the world celebrate the Death of Jesus and Christ and on the Third day, a Sunday, he Rose Again.
So this celebration is 3 days.
Haha... I went for my cell group outing, dun have the photos coz our photographer haven't upload into her computer, yet. Still waiting, maybe I'll post some up here =)
So ya, had fun and after that we went to Subway for Lunch. After that, rushed down to service. Yes, Easter Service with Drama and all that at Expo.
The Drama was pretty COOL! At the start there will be dancers and boy can they dance! It was a mixture of Chinese Kung Fu with Hip Hop and what a performance! After the dance the Drama team started their story. And it was about a guy named Leonard Lim who invented the I-MING, a device that lets you replay your memories. Happy... or Bad memories. That was the flaw of the technology. And all the I-Ming's purchasers memories are stored in a server. So the CEO of IMING made used of the server to Blackmail people and in the end, Leonard, who suffered from depression because of his Wife cheating on him, turned him in after he had experienced God himself.
The IMing Version 2 was his next invention he was working on. It was to go to the past. Which he found himself in Jerusalem, that's when he saw the miracles Jesus performed. However, Leonard could not be seen by anybody in the past. After looking at the miracles of Jesus and the relationship he had with Simon Peter. He was delighted at the ongoing success of his invention. Returning back to the World, Leonard became an icon, a millionaire and his face was placed on every business magazine. Shortly after that, the news of the negative side effects of IMing was on the news, where apparently someone committed suicide due to shame of having their darkest secrets shown to others through the IMing.
Leonard was furious at his boss for being so hasty to launch the IMing saying that he needed time to go through safety measures but he would not listen. That's when, his wife came in. She saw him at his launches, signing autograph of the IMing but did not went up because she did not want to interfere with his success. She realized that she still loved him despite her mistake in sleeping with another man. She told him outrightly that she was sorry and wanted the relationship to work again.
Leonard was immediately taken aback, confused, as well as furious. He assumed that Suzanne, his wife, was willing to come back to him due to his success and wealth. He rejected her even when she said that she is leaving for Shanghai tonight. He cast her away, telling her that she had betrayed him. After the wife left her wedding ring on the floor and went away, Leonard tried to focus back on his IMing version 2 and came to the point of the Last Supper. There he heard Jesus spoke to the disciples of the breaking of bread and drinking of the wine. After which Simon was concerned with Jesus being so down and out. Jesus replied to Simon that one of them will Betray him tonight. Simon immediately vowed that he would not betray him, but was prophesied by Jesus himself, that he will Deny him 3 times before the cock crows for the morning.
Then they came to the Garden of Gesemany(sorry dunno how to spell), and there Jesus and his disciples prayed. Jesus talk to God about his anxieties and his fear of doing the work of God, after which, he declared that he Will do His Will. That's when Jesus confronted the Roman Soldiers and Judas Iscariot. After which came the passion of the Christ portion. Its too much to write about that. I... dun even want to write that part. Its a scene that has up till today, still touched me alot.
After which Jesus was hung on the cross. "It is FINISHED!" Jesus bellowed. Thats where the scene showed Simon saying sorry and kneeling before the cross where Jesus hung. Leonard Lim saw all this and pointed an accusing finger at Simon. "Why do you betray the one you love! You loved him and yet you still betray him?" Leonard then accidentally fast forwarded the scene to three days later, the part where Peter and the Fisherman went back to fishing. Peter was still in a state of shock and was still mourning over Jesus death. The fisherman had caught nothing. After which, a voice asked if they have fished a catch. That's when they realized Jesus was there, alive and well. Simon Peter came forward and cried out to him for Forgiveness, which Jesus gave it to him, freely, willingly with no grudge and no condemnation. After which the Fisherman were told by Jesus to prepare a feast of celebration. When the fisherman had left. Jesus turned around and spoke, "Leonard."
Leonard was shocked! He could not believe it! Jesus could see him? Confused and surprised, Jesus spoke to him. "Letting go is also a form of forgiveness, Leonard, Let go of your past. Face the future." (Ok it was something like that, I could not remember all the details) Leonard, touched by Jesus unconditional love towards someone that betrays him and even gave forgiveness to him, a second chance to redeem himself. That's when he broke down and cried. Finally, forgiveness entered his heart.
After that, the scene changed to the news reporters stating the arrest of CEO of ISIN, as he was the one blackmailing other people using the IMing. The product was recalled and Leonard Lim took over the ISIN company and renamed it, ILive. His company recently came up with a new invention which he wanted his Wife, Suzanne to be there. As he announced the launch, he declared that he loved his wife and will be with her as he had met a man that has shown him the ropes to forgiveness. So he declared his wife to be married once again. After which, he talked about his new invention. Its called the IVision, it will calculate the Future that you can be by reading the DNA in your body and will enable to make the choice of the person you are suppose to be. Thus life is always about looking forward, to the future you want to create.
