Snow Beautiful!

                     

It has been such a merry celebration of Christmas!  Hugging dear family and enjoying our time together is so special.  This is a beautiful reminder of how God dearly loves His family - those who belong to Him because of Jesus! He gave us Jesus... to be the first among many brothers and sisters He has adopted into His family.  He loves a big family!

Romans 8:28-29  And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.  For those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.

Wow! - God loves having His many chidren around Him, celebrating and fellowshipping with Him...just as we do!

1 John 3:1 See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!           And that is what we are! 

Christmas! - when God put into motion His plan to save us from the penalty of our sins, by sending His Son Jesus, trading our punishment with His Son's perfect life.

Galatians 4:4-6 But when the set time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.  Because you are His sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father."

Abba! - that's the equivalent of our "Daddy!"
God is close, near and dear - enjoying our relationship with us. Our God is not afar off!

Merry Christmas! - We certainly delighted in our family and friends this season, similar to God rejoicing over us with singing! (Isn't that amazing... God singing over us?!)

Have a glimpse into our snow-filled adventures during our visiting...
