The 25 Days of Christmas - Day 5 / Sharing Jesus

Had fun watching Jessie in the Greer Christmas Parade. She did her squad proud!

Then cinnamon rolls and coffee at Grammy and Grampa's!

While there, Kim got a call from a long lost distant relative, who was looking for Kim's grandmother. She was here, and handed her the phone.

Nellie is 95, and very much with it. Listening to the conversation, I heard as they compared which relatives they knew and who was still living and who has passed.

Then she very naturally asked, as I have heard her ask so many people so many times: "Do you know Jesus as your savior?" He must have said yes, because then she said, "Praise the Lord, thats a good thing!"

"...and that's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown..."

  1. That truly is what Christmas is all about!

    My father passed away last year just before Christmas. He was calling family and friends making sure they knew the Lord on his death bed. It was amazing! I still continue to be proud of him and his heritiage.

    Have a wonderful Christmas!

  2. Thanks Bret, isn't it amazing how nearness to end of life can change perspective as to what's important!
