I Celebrate the Day!

"Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark! The herald angels sing
'Glory to the newborn King!'"

These lyrics were really cool to me for some reason this week. Christ laid His glory down that He deserved and was born to this nasty, dirty, sinful, prideful world so that we would no longer get what we deserve! Think about that for a bit and you will realize that makes no sense! Why would the one who created logic do something so illogical? We don't have to understand why He would leave His rightful glory to come to us, the proper response is not to understand, but to worship! We must give Him glory because the glory is rightfully His! This should be evident by the fact that a lowly group of shepherds(not the most important people in the are) were visited by angels when Jesus was born! Glory did follow Him to this world and someday when He returns, his full glory will come to us! Until then, let's join in the heavenly song of the angels and give glory to king!

In other less important news, this week was mostly spent out of town visiting London and her family, eating at new restaurants, bowling, shooting, watching movies, making food, eating food, washing dishes, dirtying dishes, and just hanging out and having a good time. I spent my first Christmas with London and it was amazing! The gifts she thought of for me were amazing and special! And I have never enjoyed giving gifts as much as I did this year! God is amazing and it was very evident to me through our celebration of Christmas! Anyway, that was my week! I will talk to you all in a week!

Here we go again!

Alright, well my first attempt to regularly update this failed miserably. From here on out, I plan on giving an update on Sundays of my week. It might be something I've learned over the week, or just some interesting story I experienced, or it could be something totally different! Either way I plan on updating weekly at the least! So until Sunday, horat tʃɪk!
