Serving in the Christmas drama has really touched my heart greatly. seeing everyone work together, seeing everyone serving together... and seeing how the many many small hands put together can produce something that God can use to touch the hearts of people, the insignificant words written, which did not seem much, were used by God to make people laugh, to make people think, to touch something within them.
when i receive the praises from the people, i get reminded of how there're so many more people who deserve the praises much more than me. the amount of time and effort they've put into the whole production. i saw unsung heroes who gave and did not ask for things in return. the actors who didn't have any lines, but had to put in as much time (or even more time than me) and much more effort in thinking up a plot for their actions, the directors who had to put in time for 3 rehearsals a week for at least 2 months, staying with us, encouraging us, directing us, making each detail better. the parents of the children who acted, who came, left, came, left, had to yield their schedules to the timing of the rehearsals as well. the lights people who were there for so many more hours than us, who had to be on duty for the entire stretch of time. the stage managers, production crew who did up the dance, the music, the multimedia.the image people who had to be there as early as us in the morning to ensure that we look presentable for stage.
i just get reminded that i'm merely a fingerprint contributing to the collage that forms a whole picture.
