Come As A Child

IMG_9495 To celebrate the true reason for the season, North Cebu Baptist Church hosted a Children’s Christmas Program.   It’s something that both the kids and the parents look forward to each year!  This year we had ninety children participate in our program, Come As A Child!  They did a great job singing and making the program come to life.  In all, we had forty-five parents come to see the program and hear the beautiful story of Christmas.  Amidst the business of the season we need to always remember the miracle of Christ’s birth, a King who was born to die for this sinful world.  There can be not doubt of the sin that plagues this earth.  We are reminded of the human condition every time we watch the news or hear of an unimaginable crime that has been committed.  All these things should make us turn to a loving God who offers a better way.  He simply wants us to come as a child-believing in Him, repenting of our sin, and accepting Him alone as the way to heaven.

The holidays have come and gone and now we’re in a new year!   Christmas was a wonderful time to relax with family and enjoy Abigail’s first Christmas.  She couldn’t truly appreciate everything around her but she certainly liked helping Elizabeth wrap gifts.  To me it looked like Abbie was eating more paper then anything and wrapping seemed to take Elizabeth a lot longer but it was also a lot more fun!  We have enjoyed starting our own family traditions with this precious new baby.  It is a joy to know that because of Christ we can raise our daughter knowing His truth and love as best we can.   As we look to the new year I feel excited and a little nervous.  Lord willing, we will be leaving for Cebu in March, 2012.  We are preparing for this move and can’t wait to see what God is going to do in 2012!  Happy New Year to you all and God bless!

In the midst of the Christmas season we have enjoyed the different church functions that go on during this time of year.  My wife and I were able to join our church in Christmas caroling throughout a neighborhood.  We went down a street and sang for the folks that were home and then invited them to come to our services.   Overall the response was very favorable and one lady even cried after we sang.  No one refused the tracts we handed out so who knows what the Holy Spirit will use to draw these souls to Christ!  We are enjoying these beautiful days!

We want to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas as we celebrate the birth of our Lord! In the midst of all the festivities and fun may we remember the true reason for the season.  This Christmas my wife and I  enjoyed spending time with our families.  It was also neat for us to consider that by next Christmas our little family will have grown by one.  My God has given me so much more than I deserve!  Psalm 37:4-5 -“Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.  Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”
