Friends,
I do pray that you all had a marvelous Christmas with your family and that you experienced the blessing of our marvelous Savior.
This morning I read in the paper a story of four young men who saved a family from being consumed in an early morning house fire. They were driving along looking for a snack but everything was closed. On their way back home, they passed by a house that was billowing with smoke. They stopped, banged on the door (to no avail), then threw a chair through the window and climbed in. They rushed upstairs and awakened the inhabitants, resucuing them from certain doom. You can read the full article at www.wset.com/news/stories/1209/690580.html
Interesting, two of the heroes bear the last name of Nauss.
There is a greater hero, one who came into our broken and battered world to rescue us from our sins. His name is Jesus, the One who came on Christmas Day. Responding to His offer of forgiveness is as crucial as answering the call to exit a burning house.
That's enough preaching. When I have an opportunity, I'll upload some Christmas photos for you.
One more tidbit. December 26 is known in some places as Boxing Day. One tradition says that this is the day to recognize those who serve us all year round such as the mail carrier. Do something special for a servant in your life today.

What a great picture of mom and child. She is so precious! Both actually! Looks like Amy broke something?
