Venturing out today and going past the mall on my way to the doctor, I saw all of the cars lining up to enter the mall. It filled me with gratitude that I had no reason to enter aforementioned hazard area aka the mall.

The doctor’s office trip was for an annual blood test. Perhaps I should be concerned if I pass the test because I did not study for it. 🙂

Christmas is one week away and what I am most excited about are Christmas Eve service, Christmas Eve dinner with my friend Pastor Alekseyi and his family, and Christmas Day celebration with my friends at New Breath Church.

The older I get, the more I appreciate time with friends. Each holiday that comes I realize it might be my last time in this life to enjoy it with friends.

Focus on Jesus, time with friends, and good food on Christmas Eve and Christas Day are what I look forward to.

What are you looking forward to about Christmas?

Thank you for reading. God Bless.
