Merry Christmas!

The shortest day of the year.  Boy, do I miss sunshine!  This latitude is so gloomy and dark in December.  I sometimes feel like I should turn on more lights!  Today, it was dark as we ate supper...at 5:00! 

BUT, it's always special to be 'home for Christmas'.  I'm looking forward to special services on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.  And also great big family get-togethers.  Always a reason to smile wide.  

If you're involved in charity work, read TOXIC CHARITY.  It's a powerful book about how charity can be damaging.  I just started last night and read late into the night.   Oh!  The things we do thinking we're helping someone.  I say often, "It's hard to help people."   It's easy to give, and to do.  But to really help?  Really requires understanding.  

 

May you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ this Christmas season.
