Volition

I thought for a second or two about not posting this video that my pal Randy sent me yesterday.

Right now, in the middle of the Christmas season, it didn't seem appropriate somehow. I want to think happy thoughts about reindeer and wrapped presents and SNOW!

Then I realized the truths in this video tie in with the Christmas season perfectly. Better than my decorations and cookies can do.

I don't want to fill my mind with visions of sugar plums and figgy puddings at the expense of the truth and the things that really matter. Know what I mean?

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them,

"Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,

"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."
