Christmas at 10 below
So much can be learned about living your life as a fully devoted follower of Christ right at home with your family. For these are the people that are hardest to serve. Following up my last couple of post it has been my prayer that I would live out this happy season with humility, grace and patience. I remember seeing a tv commercial about Kris Kringle's brother Kevin Kringle and how he could never get the Christmas thing down as well as his brother. Now of course he just goes to Best Buy and they fix him up. But it made me think about Jesus' brother and the inferiority complex that he must have had. Wow talk about never measuring up in your parents eyes. But then of course there was some benefits. Jesus would always stand by you and protect you from bullies. He would give up the best helping of dessert so that you could have it. I am sure that he would nuture you along and give you any help that you needed. I guess I would take him as an older brother any day. Makes me want to be that kind of brother, son and husband (for the first time) this Christmas and every after.
