My mom took some cute pictures of the girls during their school Christmas program last month. I've been on the other end--the planning and production end--of so many programs in my life, it was really, really neat to be an attending parent. I couldn't believe how moving it was, and how my face was stuck in smile mode the whole time. Of course we are blessed, with this little Lutheran School, to have a Christmas program that really centered around Christ, which increased how moved I was. There is something really precious about hearing your children sing with a group of their peers, "Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay close by me forever and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, and fit us for heaven to live with You there."
How wonderful to think that because of that Savior in the manger, we CAN be fit for heaven to live with Jesus.
