"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
-Isaiah 9:6
Mike and I put up our first Christmas tree together. There is snow expected for this weekend. I have already wrapped a few gifts. Christmas season is here, and this verse opens up my heart to what we are celebrating this time of year. The names given to that tiny baby that was born thousands of years ago fill me with awe and hope. Wonderful Counselor. Mighty God. Everlasting Father. Prince of Peace. Let the celebrating begin!
"Dear Lord baby Jesus, lyin' there in your ghost manger, lookin' at your Baby Einstein developmental videos, learnin' 'bout shapes and colors. I would like to thank you for bringin' me and my mama together, and also that my kids no longer sound like retarded gang-bangers."
