Merry Christmas

It is with all of my heart that I wish everyone one of you a Very Merry Christmas!

What a wonderful morning I had with my family. I woke up at 5.30 this morning trying to beat the kids up, and managed to knock down all of the decorations on the mantle. When my youngest woke up and saw her brand new Wii she looked at her mother and said, "what is it?". She was very unimpressed until she was bowling down the screen. What made the day for watching my oldest daughter opening her very first bible. She loved it and it showed! To send me over the top I walked back into the room later and saw her reading Matt 1. She was truly happy and excited to have very first bible that was all her own, and was quick to show me the differences in Matt 1and Luke 2 that we read earlier in the morning.

What a challenge to me, to treasure the Word of God as much as she did this morning. How we should all enjoy the Word like a little child. I hope that this morning every reader of this blog is able to testify to the love that they have for their bible. As I told my daughter, "where your parents, friends, jobs, monies, and plans will fail you, the Word of God will always be true!"

So to you, Merry Christmas! Enjoy the Word, and thank God for coming to this earth for you and allowing the very breath that you are breathing now.

Wii -- nice. Lawl at the 'what is it' bit.

Also, pretty sick to find her reading of her own accord like that. Very awesome.
