December 25 – “Ho, Ho, Ho”


Well, our coffeepot completely crashed yesterday.  No amount of slappage or shakeage or whining had any effect.  It made plenty of noise, but no water ran through the system.  So sad.  But on the other hand, the battleground noises did wake up Chris, and as a result she walked over to the Christmas tree and insisted I open a gift.  Yup.  It was a brand new coffee maker.  In fact, it’s the kind that gives you a choice.  You can make it one cup at a time, or one fill pot at a time.  Pretty classy stuff, huh?  Makes good coffee, too. 

We had a fabulous Christmas Eve service last night.  91 people were there.  All ages, shapes and sizes.  Just like the Lord likes it, huh?

So … looks like our quite, calm Christmas Day with just the two of us will have to wait.  We did exchange our presents a few minutes ago.  More about that when I have some time.  Now we are headed to LaMarque to watch those kids celebrate.  We are pretty important there.  We are bringing the brown sugar for the breakfast bread …

Psalms 119:129-130 says, “Your statutes are wonderful; therefore I obey them.  The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.”

Father, thank you for the amazing turnout at the Christmas Eve service.  And thank you once again for the best gift ever after you … my wife.  Amen.
