We are having a little Christmas get together tomorrow evening with some friends who have been asking questions about God and Christianity. Two of which never grown up in homes that Christ was taught. L and I need lots of prayer about what to say if the subject comes up, which I think it will. Its not easy to explain our infinite Creator in finite words. Please be praying for this couple and guy, that the Holy Spirit will move in their hearts, and that our words will make sense to them.
Its a very different Christmas for me because aside from not spending it they way I grew up, this will be the first Christmas without my Gammy. I had never realized how many traditions and memories of Christmas had to do with her. I'm having to create our own traditions. This year its been a little unorganized just because of planning around other's schedules and our trip home on Wednesday. But next year I want to establish our Christmas traditions so we will have a foundation for when we start having kids. I want them to have memories they can cherish as I have.
Thank you to everyone who prays for us! We definitely feel them.
"Every time you cross my mind, I break out in exclamations of thanks to God. Each exclamation is a trigger to prayer. I find myself praying for you with a glad heart. I am so pleased that you have continued on in this with us, believing and proclaiming God's Message, from the day you heard it right up to the present. There has never been the slightest doubt in my mind that the God who started this great work in you would keep at it and bring it to a flourishing finish on the very day Christ Jesus appears."
