...and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

Preoccupied

So it's December 21st already and I am both pathetic at updating my blog AND incredibly disorganized for Christmas. I at least have 98% of my presents accounted for and hidden in my room, but now I need to find time to lay them all out and wrap. I have a sneaky feeling I'll be getting that done on Christmas Eve.

I know Christmas is not about presents, but it seems like I'm so preoccupied with work and organizing those presents that I'm not taking time to remember the true meaning of the season. Without Jesus coming to earth as a small baby to save us, we would have no holiday to celebrate. It's all about Him, and the unselfish act of humbling Himself as a human and dying on the cross for our sins. We remember his arrival during this season, and that is truly what we are joyful of.

So there's my little ditty about Christmas. Now I have a post up and can get back to figuring out the gifts.

God's blessings to all as we celebrate the Reason for the season!!




At least we'll have a white Christmas!
