Merry Christmas all my blogging friends and readers!
I can hardly believe that Christmas is actually here. I mean, I have been listening to Christmas music since September, scouting stores for the tiniest hint of Christmas decorations in the stores since October, flailing about all during November and vibrating during all of December. Now, all my months of dedication to waiting for this day will quickly come and go within a short period of twenty-four hours, but how wonderful this short amount of time will be.
Looking outside my living room window this morning, I noticed the gentle flutter of snowflakes dancing across the sky, announcing the birth of our Christ. It was a perfect way to begin this day, having a simple reminder that means so much. Even though this will be a day full of joy, laughter, and showing love for those we care about most, it is a day to rejoice because today marks the beginning of my own life. Today is the day to celebrate the Lord's birth and the birth of life through him. And, after peeking through the freezer for some snacks it seems as though we picked up a birthday cake for Jesus.
So, among all the festivities today, remember to be thankful for what this day brings, for it brings new life. This is a day to celebrate life and the new life that Christ gives us.
And the cake we get to eat because of it. :)
Merry Christmas to all,
Katie M.
P.S. I'm also including a song sung by Audrey Assad and Chris Tomlin called "Winter Snow" so check it out! :)
