Reliving Christmas


This is a belated post. But I was so blessed this Christmas that I can not keep it to myself! Among other  gifts, our children gave us calendars with family pictures so we can see them every day while we are gone on our mission trip, magnetic picture frames to stick to our refrigerator ( yes, we are going to have a refrigerator) and  our son David gave us his very own book that he wrote and published. Wow , he made us all cry. I will be posting some of the pages of his book soon. At the suggestion of our new friend Pat, Hernan gave me some sketching books and pencils to take with me to the mission trip. Well , I know  she mentioned it, but I know he had already thought about it (he is really good at knowing what I would like to have)!
Carmen, our daughter, prompted me to do a three minute sketch, I looked around and sketched one of our bookshelves, she looked at it and added the verse at the bottom. The verse has stucked to my mind and I wanted to share it with everyone, because THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, NO MATTER WHERE WE GO, WE ARE   A VESSEL TO CARRY CHRIST. 
 Like Blessed Mother Theresa of Calcutta said  and I dare to paraphrase, our job may be a drop in the sea, but there would be no sea if it wasn't for all the drops. God Bless you wherever you are!!!
