Reflections on the Christ Child

We have been in a whirlwind of Sunday School class parties, dinners, choir practices, Christmas Contata, and all the shopping activity that goes with the Christmas season. It has been wonderful to share in the celebration of the most important event in history -- the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, the long awaited seed promised to Abraham. What a gift! God gave us Himself, the only begotten Son, who came with the express purpose of living a sinless life in order to become the Lamb of God who would take upon Himself the sins of all human kind. He was born to die so that you and I might live. God's gift to us is forgiveness and eternal life. I want to spend some quiet days reflecting on our God and His amazing gift.

I tell you the truth, whoever believes has eternal life. John 6:47

Today I have been thinking about how blessed we are when it comes to family. Not only do we have wonderful children; but with the addition of Baby Nan in late October, we now have six grandchildren in Lubbock, Texas. Then we have three more in Dublin, Georgia. Our cup runneth over!!!
