As you know, all our D2B postings have been for the men, the Dads, the Grandpas who are working to be the best that they can be. Well, today on this Christmas Eve 2021, it is good to pause and to reflect on where we've been and to consider where we want to go in our time ahead. In looking back, we all can probably see our flaws and tough times and it is from them, we have worked to learn and to become better. A work done, not yet but for sure a work in process. In looking forward, despite the many unknowns, we know that we can change as we want, and yes it can be hard, to create the new future that we want for ourselves and for our loved ones. We are working to embrace respect, compression and honor in all that we do, as best that we can. |
Now, as to the why are we striving to be better for our spouse, for our kids, for our grandkids, for others? It comes back to the one who was born two thousand years ago, the one who we look forward to celebrating his birth on Christmas day. Jesus Immanuel Christ is the reason for the season. It is in knowing that God took on our human life, through His son, to live, to teach and to love us . . . so that we have a role model, to help show us the way for being the role models that we need to be. Easy? No, but despite anything that has or can happy in our lives, we know this: For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 Merry Christmas everyone!!! |
