Amen to St. Nick in the Big City! But this Christmas morn (and afternoon), I confess receiving great joy in seeing Eden take 2-3 steps here and there between presents (thank-you to everyone for their generous gifts and even more so for their love/care for Eden), play hide-n-go seek with her sisters (thank-you Hayley and Ellen for being big sisters), fill up on plate-after-plate of food (lots of cheese thanks to Uncle Phil), and embrace her large stuffed puppy (thank-you Uncle Scott).

Time to pack it in, in order to rise fresh for more joyous time with family tomorrow (and a few year end Fund Development details for InterVarsity) as we walk together in this life. With even more anticipation than Christmas gifts and time with family, I look forward to Christ Jesus in the Big City descending from heaven. A time when Eden will dance on the streets that are golden not only with Baby Elise, but the whole family of the people of God (including St. Nick) . . . and all the world will be set aright (as it was intended to be at the time of creation before we chose our own way into darkness/sin). Come Lord Jesus, Come. Enable our family to walk by the Light, Logos, and Life of your glory and grace each and every day . . .
