Matthew 28:19-20 (CEB) Therefore, go and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything that I’ve commanded you. Look, I
myself will be with you every day until the end of this present age.”
Today I am going to hopefully make large inroads in taking
down our Christmas decorations. We used
to do it between Christmas and New Years Day but now we use that week to visit
our grandchildren. The first week back
is simply too busy catching up to take on this project. Like my friends, I love
to decorate for Christmas but not so much taking it down. A friend said
yesterday that we are spurred on by the anticipation of the season when we
decorating. Now all that is past. Yet I’m
going to try to encourage myself today by reminding me as I pack away each
ornament or decoration that while Christmas is gone, Christ is still with
me. I like new Common English Bible
translation of this verse. I am with you every day – not just during the
important Christian holidays.
Unto you, Christ we bring our praises. Help us to
continually sense your presence in our lives.
We ask in your holy name, Amen.
Have
a great weekend!Paige
