Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
 
Even though I have been battling the winter flu bug, I still love the snow! 

 

What about you?
 
It is fun to watch how each of my neighbors respond to heavy snowfalls. One guy likes to get up at 5 am and fire up his snow blower so that the whole neighborhood has a wake up call.  Better yet, his dog loves to play in the snow and so we all get to hear it bark as he throws one of her doggy toys!
 
Another neighbor has a new snow blower and loves to take his time with the snow.  He may start earlier than we all do, but he also will be the one who is still out there when everyone else is finished.
 
Another neighbor waits until everyone else is done so that his driveway doesn't get any of the "blow bye" from other's blowing snow!
 
One neighbor loves to go up and down the street doing just the side walks! 
 
Every single one of us has this unique side; each one being created in the image of God. I guess we could call ourselves "God's original masterpieces."
 
That is what I love about the Christmas story - God chose a person like Mary to carry and give birth to the Son of God. 
 
Why Mary?  What is it about Mary that makes her so special?
 
Or is it possible that every single one of us is special? Is it possible that every single one of us has been called by God to do something special for the Kingdom of God?
 
I hope to see you this Sunday. 

 

I have a special video clip that I really believe is going to hit home and bring out the true meaning of Christmas.
 
Sunday could change your life - for eternity!
