1 Chronicles 29:22

"They ate and drank with great joy in the presence of the LORD that day" 1 Chronicles 29:22.



Todd and I are blessed with a wonderful and loving small group bible study. We meet with them every other week for fellowship and study. We always have such a fun time. Tonight we had our Christmas "party". The only thing I would have added was we should have gathered around and read from the bible about the birth of our Lord. I reminded my students today at Sunday school to not forget about "the reason for the season" and tonight I forgot. Please forgive me Lord :).

Thank you, small group friends, for you companionship, prayers, and love. We look forward to "running the race" (Philippians 3:14) with you in 2006.
