This December, I've been amazed at many things. The simple things in Life. Caroling, singing songs about Jesus. The one lady had tears rolling down her cheeks and the most radiant smile on her face as she listened to the carols being sung. As we began to leave, she exclaimed, "Oh, I thought I was hearing angels tonight!" It's the simple things of life. Today I was walking hurriedly through the mall, trying to find that last minute Christmas gift, when an older lady sitting on a bench looked at me, and gave me a smile. Somehow, it made my day. So the next person I came into contact with, I smiled at them and the tired look was replaced with a smile. :) the simple things of Life.
Most of all, I've been impressed, and amazed, all over again at the most simple thing, yet the most wonderful thing of all. God's Love. Wow. The continuing amazing simplicity, and endurance of His Love. Time and again, I fail, you fail. Yet because of this awesome Grace and Love, we can start over, and keep walking in the Way. The Forgiveness. All because of that awesome infinite Love. Love came down as a baby, Love walked on the earth. Love was subjected to the abuse and rejection of It's creation. Love loved them anyway. Love died for me, for you. Love chose this, when It would never have had to. Love, pure undefiled Love. Love loved me and you even when we thought we knew better, thought we could make it on our own. Love kept loving us when we forsook Him. Isn't it amazing? How Deep the Fathers Love for us, how vast beyond all Measure. The most simple Thing ever, yet at the same time, the most complex Thing. God's Love.
May you all have a wonderful Christmas Dav :)
