Merry Christmas
It is December 25, and I am in Indiana for the break. My family and I are gearing up to go to church shortly, and today we will celebrate The birth of Christ with the exchange of gifts. For a lot of people, the mere mention of "Christmas" is highly offensive and is cause for getting all upset.
I look at it this way. Here in the United States, you and I have rights. I have the right to express my faith and to share it with others. In turn, you have the right to find it offensive and get ruffled. And in response to that, I have the right to simply shrug and say "Gee, that's too bad. Merry Christmas anyway!"
So to you and yours, I would like to wish a very Merry Christmas. May today be filled with the hope that came to this world through Christ Jesus, who paved the way for us to approach the throne of grace.

Hi Matt,
Hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas!
I stumbled across this link that I had kept from some time ago, found you still keep it updated from time to time. I took the bold move of creating my own blogger, so maybe I'll ramble over a few things later!
You know me as your birthday buddy and know what VHR means ;-)
