December 23, 2006

Merry Christmas! Last night I was wondering why people in cars were in such a hurry to get out on the roads and, as it turns out, get stuck in the snow. I got stuck yesterday morning in a 4-wheel drive pickup; the cars had no business even trying! Well, an understanding heart is what Jesus gives us when his light shines into those dark corners. I realized that many people have been in their houses for 2 and ½ days by last night and perhaps had no choice but to go out for some of their food staples. We really are no longer accustomed to snows like this out in these parts; many do not have a week’s worth of food and water in their home in case of something like this.
The light of world came to those living in darkness, and a powerful light He is! Stories of light and hope are shared by all of us, but perhaps this weekend I shall take the plunge and write a fresh story for you. Jesus made each of us unique, and so there must be something for me to write that isn’t a retelling of all the Christmas stories you have already heard a thousand times. One weekend, we shall see what can be done.

Have a wonderful Christmas weekend!
