Merry Christmas!!

This Christmas, though packed with friends, church family, and contact with family, has also been filled with twinges of loneliness. Yet I am thankful for those moments, because they are a reminder that...
This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know I have no friend like You

Moving right along, this is what I've been listening to lately. What a reminder of reality in the midst of the ever-present distraction of consumerism this season.

Merry Christmas!

...and just a glimpse of my adventures this Christmas, I went hunting for the perfect Christmas tree, and I think I found a pretty good one :)
