let us not forget christmas.

Growing more and more aware of the number of days until our departure for West Virginia, I decided to begin wrapping our Christmas presents yesterday evening! After several cups of coffee and a few breaks last night and this afternoon, I am happy to announce that the final bow has been tied. Nonetheless, as I stood and tried to find an empty space for one remaining gift, I couldn't help but remember Brother Kevin's message this morning at church- Let Us Not Miss Christmas! Let us not be like Bethlehem's Inn Keeper, Herod, or even the multitude of religious leaders that missed the very special birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, but let us glorify His name and remember the ultimate sacrifice that He has made for us. For He is our most precious gift of all. Praise be to God for the countless blessings that He has extended to my family and to yours. Merry, merry Christmas!
