This morning, we got a text message from Daniel, my newest brother-in-law. It said:
Wishing you the very best in this time of yearning between the now and the not yet.
Happy Christmas
Daniel & Amber
On this day of family, food, and friendship, I pray the same for you–both the yearning, and the fulfillment of it in Jesus Christ and the home He has prepared for those who love Him.
Happy holidays!

What a gorgeous sentiment, indeed!! Between the now and the not-yet.
Aye, there’s the rub!
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! This time of year does indeed provoke in me a yearning for our future in heaven. Praise God for the gift of His son!
Thank you for making Christmas about Christ! We really tried to talk to our kids about that this year, and make sure they didn’t only connect Christmas with Santa.
Wow, that is a beautiful way to put it….what a great brother-in-law 🙂 Hope you had a very Merry Christmas!!
I think your brother-in-law is a fantastic man! And cute too! He he
