Merry Christmas

December 25th, 2008

I had another chance today to enjoy a reflection on the Chistmas songs we carolled at our Christmas Party last week. It seems the simples truths are often the blessings that touch us most.

As part of Christmas I’ve had the opportunity to read Luke chapter 2 with my family a couple times and was blessed by its correlation to the song Angels we have heard on high.

Angels we have heard on high is about angels and shepards giving “Glory to God in the highest” that Christ the savior is born.

In Luke 2 the angels appeared to the shepards and gave them the good news about Chirst’s birth. They’re surrounded by heavenly hosts and sing “Glory to God in the highest.” Once the shepards have followed the angel’s instructions and found Christ in the manger they give glory to God and sing his praises.

On a kinda comical note I am spending my Christmas watching Home Alone in my recently “made into a family room” basement which we moved our TV into but have no furniture in. So we’re all in sleeping bags on the floor.

Meanwhile my wife, brother-in-law (the two of them choose the movie) and sister-in-law are out cold sleeping through the movie.

I choose to journal my reflections on giving “Glory to God in the highest” instead of paying attention to the movie.

Merry Christmas.
