merry christmas from us! :)
i hope you had a great day. I hope you slept great and woke up to cinnamon rolls. I hope Santa brought you a new ipad and then you got some clothes that you have to return because they were too big :) i hope you found in your stocking that one awesome thing that you mentioned you wanted one random time last month and someone remembered. I hope you had the right amount of wine (not too much=sleepy, not enough = boring) i hope you got prime rib and twice baked potatoes and some pie. or cake. or chocolate. or a little bit of everything.
I thought this is what Christmas was. You felt loved by the gifts and "merry christmas's" you got and how many likes your instagram photos got.
it's not. i hope you had a great day because you really, truly honestly in your heart realize that God loves you. Yes. You. He knew the day you were going to be born. He knows how many hairs are on YOUR head. Yep. You. God loves YOU, SO much. I hope you know that.
I guess I always knew that I was supposed to know that because of all those songs ("Jesus loves me this I know, for the bible tells me so")
just recently I have begun to get it. He loves ME. He chose ME.
i have wasted so many tears and christmas's and family gatherings really doubting how someone we all sing about and worship at Christmas could really love someone like me.
I just hope you felt today, even just for a second, a FRACTION of how much He loves you.
