Today we begin a sermon series entitled, “Waiting For Christmas” based on Luke 2: 21-38. This is part of the message I gave yesterday at the First Baptist Church in Quemado, New Mexico. It was such a wonderful day of worship and learning! Have you ever noticed that the older we get, the less anxious we are for Christmas Day? Don’t get me wrong! I LOVE the Christmas season and I always enjoy this time of year, especially this year with our first grandchild, Lilith! It seems that Christmas is over so very fast and then leaves me with a kind of “blah” feeling…..So much preparation and it’s over so very fast!
