I greatly value the privilege of sharing my thoughts and comments with you about the practical wisdom of God’s Word. With some joyful, family responsibilities this week – the graduation from Texas A&M of our eldest granddaughter and her husband – and the added Christmas events and activities of our preschools and Academy, and some major administrative responsibilities at our church and schools right now, as well as setting aside additional time with family and friends at the Christmas season, I think it wise to take a Christmas break from writing, until the first of the New Year. I may or may not make time to send an occasional EveryDay Life during these remaining weeks of 2010, but will do so when and as the Lord places something from His heart into my heart for you.

Have a blessed and joyous Christmas, never forgetting the One whose birth, life, and sacrifice we celebrate!My Christmas theme this year was “The Impossible True Story.” I stand amazed with Mary – asking, “how can these things be?” – only to realize that the Almighty God would come into my world in the most impossible way – just for me, and you! No wonder they called His name “Wonder-full!” I love that He was also called “Immanuel, who is God with us.”
