Christmas Reflections

I just posted in my Christmas blog and thought why not here, too.  In fact, I think doing better with my blogs might just be a New Year's resolution.  In my other blog, I was reflection on expectations.  That is my word for 2013, "expectations".  One that I started off well with then truthfully forgot, until today. And it has been a year for challenging expectations which probably led up to this whole Christmas thing which led up to a second blog.
  It will soon be time to choose a word for 2014 so maybe I will do better blogging as I reflect on that word and how it is happening in my life.  The crock pot is now on in my brain.  I'm sure "the word" will pop out at me unexpectedly, probably 4:00 AM when I can't go back to sleep.  Then it will be time for another journey.  And in the next week, I probably should do some year end reflection on how exactly my expectations have been challenged.  But not tonight.  It's Christmas Eve and it's time to say...
  Blessed Christmas!  Remember the joy of the Lord's presence even if your Christmas is quite challenging.  It is about the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  Where we would be without Him?  Still walking in the dark...so whatever your circumstances, remember:

Love has come, a Light in the darkness!
