Christmas Eve Eve

No I'm not stuttering! It's Christmas Eve Eve...the day before the day before.

Well anyway it was a wonderful day! We got to visit Margaret in Overland Park, Kansas and although she is confined to a wheelchair for the moment due to an accident, we do believe 2009 is going to see her up and around. She has a smile, an energy and a personality that just can't be kept down! She does have one twisted quirk though...she keeps an almost unnaturally clean desk. As soon as she gets up and around, we're going to ask her to help find my desk!

Today was also the first day The Innkeeper of Bethlehem was aired on radio through Horizon Radio Network. It will air again on Christmas Eve at noon & 6:00pm (Central Time). The KSRD production staff did a great job of making us sound good and they are absolutley the best to work with! It was amazing to hear something that you wrote, perform and recorded on the air. It is heard anywhere there is a computer (just google KSRD) and it is also being broadcast through radio stations around the country. Lucy and I cried when it came on. To be used by God to touch people we have never met is almost too much to bear. We both miss our parents. They have gone home to be with the Lord. I guess anytime you do something good or worthwhile, you want Mom and Dad to see or hear it. That never changes no matter how old you get.

We also got a chance to share the Innkeeper and have dinner with a group of developmentally delayed adults. We so admire the people who care for these folks. Lucy and I were talking on the way home about how they...the cared for AND the caretakers...are the forgotten of our culture.

It was a wonderful day of blessing people, being blessed and watching people love each other
