chipmunks

Chipmunk movie = Christmas story. (warning: spoiler ahead.. so if u wanna watch chipmunks, come back after you have watched it.)

What do you want for your christmas? Lots of toys, gifts, money, fame, freedom, fun... Just like the chipmunks in the story. They so look forward to christmas.. they wanted presents. And they were abit disappointed when dave gave them saving coupons instead of gifts. Which uncle ian gave... And uncle ian the santa, deceived them, that they deserve something better, earn money, get fame, do whatever they want and be treated like stars. Though the chipmunks remembered what dave told them, like they need rest, they shouldnt perform intensely... they were deceived. Ended up at ian's place, who told them... there's no rules! Yep, they get to play, eat and do everything with no rules, unlike at dave's place. But the results, they had to perform, sing, act, do everything that ian says...... like puppets with no life, no rules, but under control, till they are exhausted. On the other side.... dave was missing them, and they missed him too.

Begin to see the picture? I did. I realised we are like the chipmunks. And we so love christmas. Dave represents... who else, but our loving Father, who let us stay w Him and treat us like a family, though He set rules, they meant well. And the saving coupons? They are like tickets to eternal life... we may not see the value of it now, but as we continue to work and save into it, we will be able to see our rewards later, like the savings tt will increase. Safety net? Security? Hope for eternity.

And... uncle ian the santa. Who else but satan, who deceives us that we deserve better, refuting everything that God is saying to us. Though we may rememeber God's word, satan lies and lures us away from God. Yep, life without God may seems fun. We get to do the things we want, enjoy ourselves, do everything without rules. No commandments to follow, no rules to obey. And we get to fulfill our desires, for fame, popularity, money, power....

But what's the results? We are like the chipmunks, tired out by running after all these, becoming like puppets, controlled by satan, some even lost their souls. Sounds sad. But there is still hope! Cos God misses us! He loves us so much cos we are His family. And we miss Him too.. All of us have that God-shaped vacuum, only He can fill. So.... He would risk everything, do anything and nothing can stop Him from coming and get us, saving us from satan. And we, will be God's family! =)

HAHA. Two responses you can have now. 1) WAH, huihui, you siao ah.. like that also can link. And forget about it. 2) WOW, thank God that He can use even a non-christian movie to share His love. It's all about Him. Everything on earth can be linked back to Him. And run back to God for His love and protection. I chose 2). =D
