Now I'm smiling. We were reflecting on what a great year we had. Sure, there were some bumps along the way. Despite those things, we had an excellent year together. This year, we celebrated our 54th Christmas together. I can't believe it's been that long. With a very curious look in her eyes, she looked at me and said, "Out of all those Christmases that we had together, which one would you think is your best Christmas?" I learned a lot from my father, so I responded, "Oh, my dear. My best Christmas is the one we're celebrating right now." You can get in trouble by saying something like that. Sure, we've had Christmases all the way back to 1970, and most of them I don't remember, so I believe the best Christmas I've ever had is the one I'm enjoying now. Coming to the end of a year and the beginning of a new year, I couldn't help but think of a verse in the Bible. Solomon wrote many years ago, “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9). My experience is that the older I get the less things change. As a young person, I always hoped things would change and get better. Sometimes they did, but more often than not, things remain the same. The only change in my life was when I surrendered my life unto the Lord Jesus Christ as my Saviour. Tweet
