Merry Christmas


It snowed on Sunday morning, just in time for Christmas. It was a nice, light coating and then it got beastly cold after. The temp got down to 9 degrees last night and it's headed for -2 by Tuesday night with two more chances for snow later in the week. So, I guess it's going to be winter after all. The only thing we can due is pray for April. At least the sun is out today.

With most Christmas blog posts we get the Christmas story from the gospel of Luke. I prefer to look ahead.

Revelation 1:7 New International Version (NIV)

7 “Look, he is coming with the clouds,”[a]
    and “every eye will see him,
even those who pierced him”;
    and all peoples on earth “will mourn because of him.”[b]
So shall it be! Amen.

The Day is coming and coming in soon. The shofar will announce it. The eastern sky will open up and all who have not believed will then know and that knowledge will be damning. But to us of the Faith, the hope that came as a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes will be returning to claim His own.
That great gettin up morning.

Come on back Lord. The times are ripe. We are anxious. Bring it! Let justice be done, let the mighty fall and raise up your children victorious. It's time. Maranatha!
