Another Christmas Celebration

Merry Christmas... from our family to yours

I love Christmas. Not only is it a time for reconnecting with family, surrounding yourself with warmth and love, and filling your heart with a spirit of giving and emotion... but it's also a great opportunity to take a few (or a lot) quiet moments to reflect about life.

During the church service this past Sunday, one of the speakers used John 3:16 to tell a story about a father who read to his son as he was growing up. I can't do the story justice at this moment, but the point of it was to remind us all that God sent Jesus for each and every one of us... the individuals that we are... valuable and precious in our own right whether we're risk-taskers, non-decision-makers, conservatives OR liberals, etc. No matter what else is going on in your life... or in mine, since ultimately, this is about me :) ... you/we/I should know that "God so loved HEIDI (of course, insert your name here) that He gave His only begotten son." I do feel loved at Christmastime. Other times, I may forget it; but today, I know He is with me. May you feel that love every day of your life.
