There’s Room For Everyone
I am so glad that the Bible does not look at the people in it with rose-colored glasses. The fact that they are flawed and yet forgiven means that I can be too.

(This is the fourth in a collection of related shorts. I would very strongly recommend reading Do You Hear before reading this. Most Wonderful Time and Blue Christmas are also related, but they are not as essential for following this one. There will be at least one, probably two more in this series so keep your eyes open.) December…
I’ll have a blue Christmas without you
I’ll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won’t be the same dear, if you’re not here with me
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we’ve no place to go
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
And with fear and trembling stand;
Ponder nothing earthly-minded,
For with blessing in His hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
Our full homage to demand.
O Holy Night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear’d and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Mid January 4 BC, Chang’an, China Day 1 I can’t believe we are doing this. When the star first appeared nearly three weeks ago, everybody was in an uproar. Of course, many in the courts tried to toady up to Emperor Ai by saying it was a propitious sign for his reign. Jiao Guangqi knew…
Now behold the Lamb
The precious Lamb of God
Born into sin that I may live again
The precious Lamb of God
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day
Silent Night, Holy Night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
