The Gospel According to Farmville

I'm gonna make this quick because I just got back from the Lipka Christmas Party and I'm BEAT. Lugging all those presents home for the boy is hard work :)

But wanted to mention a little something I saw today that was kinda cool. If you play Farmville you know what a wonderful day today is :-) Since I also handle Ethan's farm I opened up about 250 presents. And then someone else sends one every couple minutes after that so I have been inundated with presents all day!

Well, after my clicking frenzy to open up all those pixelated gifts, I read a verse that seemed very appropriate at that moment:

"We all live off of His generous bounty, gift after gift after gift." (John 1:16 The Message)

Ya, so a couple hundred gifts from Farmville on Christmas Eve is pretty nice - but take notice of all the gifts God gives every day - "gift after gift after gift". (try saying that 5 times fast, by the way).

My son woke up all nice and happy - Gift #1. In the dreadful heat that should be illegal on Christmas Eve I was able to crank on the air conditioning - Gift #2.

You get the idea. Merry Christmas and Thank God for His Unspeakable Gift (HUG - 2 Corinthians 9:15)

Good night!!!!

  1. I'm thankful for the gift of my wonderful sister (in-law), brought into my family by marrying my amazing brother. She has been such a blessing to me, opening her home and heart. I appreciate our talks and her honesty on any matter. I'm glad your my sister Ruthy.
