Christmas

Can you believe that there are only FIVE days until Christmas?
I can't.
This month has gone by WAY to fast. In fact, this YEAR has gone by way to fast.
It seems like they are starting to get faster and faster.
I don't like it.
It means that my little boy will be growing up too fast. Can you believe he is almost 2 years old?
I can't. (Really, it makes my heart hurt to think about it)

But I am so lucky to have him.

I am also lucky to have a Savior in my life who leads me every day.
Where would I be without Christ in my life? And as we are getting closer to Christmas, I can't help but think about what the Lord did for us. He made the biggest sacrifice of all.
He suffered, so I could live. He suffered so that I could come to this earth and choose whether I was going to wear a red shirt or a blue shirt tomorrow. He did that...for me. What am I doing to repay him?

I sure hope I am doing enough, and what he has asked me to do. Because that's a pretty big debt to repay.

Good thing is he doesn't expect us to pay that debt back. He did it willingly. He did it, knowing that he wouldn't be paid back for it. He did it out of the kindness of His heart. Out of pure love. He wants us to live our lives the BEST that way can! He never asked us to be perfect. Just to do the best we can, so that we can live with Him again.
I can't wait.
