Christmas Day 2018 is now a memory. Of course, at least for most of us, it's still with us because there's still the clean-up to do. But the celebrating is done and we're moving on to the next thing.
I confess that I've already given a little thought to Christmas 2019. Wondering how we will celebrate next year. And the Christmas after that. That's because, if we stay on the same schedule that has worked for us for all these years, next year will be just the two of us, and our family will all be together for Christmas again in 2020. Christmas this year was a house full of Feasters with all the laughter and fun and chaos that goes along with that!
I'm looking forward to gathering with the family for Thanksgiving next year, and for Christmas the year after that, and to all the Christmases to come. I love my family, and I love the Christmas season!
But I'm also looking forward to the day when we are no longer here on earth celebrating the birth of Jesus. To the day when we are in His presence forever, celebrating Him!
What a day that will be!
"Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing! To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!" (Revelation 5:12-13 ESV)
