It's something how God gets his message through to us. This morning I had a reality check. I was reading a message from a Grandmother talking about getting to bring her new Grandson home from the hospital. Having being born to early his little life was touch and go for a while and for months the only world he knew was that of Doctors and Nurses. It made me think of Noah's first Christmas last year and how happy I was to have him home and out of the hospital.
We all have our special Christmas past I know. I've got a couple that I hold close to my heart. One Christmas that was so special was when Melissa was very young. Times were hard and money for Christmas was something we really didn't have, but we were going to make sure Melissa had a Christmas. Here again God came through for us. The apartments we were living in needed some work done. We worked in an off and on rain to earn Christmas money. That is one Christmas that I'll always remember and as I look back that was one of the best Christmas' I remember.
Another Christmas that stands out was when the house we were renting burned. It was just a couple of weeks before Christmas. We lost pretty much everything, but people come from all over to help us. Our church just couldn't do enough for us. This wasn't the best Christmas for us, because of the fire, but yet it was good because of the people that showed us they carried... They didn't talk about Christmas they demonstrated Christmas.
So five days from Christmas let's not talk Christmas lets demonstrate Christmas. If it's nothing more than opening the door for someone or maybe just a warn smile and kind word. But let’s not stop six days from today... Let’s keep Christmas in our hearts all year.
I wish you a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and I hope the New Year brings us new and bigger opportunities.
