I hope you all had a very merry Christmas, full of joy and longing!
I got to celebrate our great Emmanuel with my dad, mom, and grandmommy.
So thankful for family time as my leaving date draws closer and closer.
A dear friend shared this with me yesterday, and I thought I would share it with you all today.
"I have family coming for the holidays, and it feels good...
All other homecomings are foretastes. And foretastes are good.
Unless they become substitutions.
Don't let all the sweet things of this season become substitutions of the
final, great, all satisfying sweetness.
Let every loss and every delight send your hearts a-homing after heaven."
That is my prayer for me this year, and my prayer for you!
May every loss and every joy draw us into deeper communion with the Word.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, my friends!
