Here's hoping you had a very Merry Christmas!

And some of the celebrating continues through the first of the new year!

Here is an entry from"365 Days of Prayer for Women" by Stephanie Sample for December 24

EXTRAVAGANT LOVE

"A child has been born to us;
God has given a son to us.
He will be responsible for leading the people.
His name will be Wonderful Counselor,
Powerful God,
Father Who Lives Forever,
Prince of Peace."

~ Isaiah 9:6 NCV

"Awesome God, your beautiful purpose awes me. Long before that night in Bethlehem, you gave your prophet Isaiah a vision of the moment we celebrate. Thank you, Lord, for the intricate, patient way you orchestrated our salvation. Thank you foretelling this wonderful story, giving us proof all your promises are true, Thank you for love. Thank you for hope. Thank you for joy. Thank you for Jesus. Help me hold onto this gratitude, this love for you. Let me stay in this place of promise and hope and faith. Never let me forget how elaborately, how extravagantly you love."

"Isn't it wonderful how extravagantly we are loved by God?"
