Day two: Room

Marty gave me the inspiration for today's Cheer...

The following words were those of the Lessmanns' friend, Bob. He said these things when he was close to death, but Marty remembers that as Bob spoke, his lifeless face regained color and for a moment he had energy again.

We have turned Christmas into an "I" holiday, where we worry about ourselves, what we will get everyone, how we will make the house pretty (all good things when our approach is correct), but fail to remember WHAT WE ARE PREPARING FOR. More so, WHO we are preparing, and for what reason. In the end we are preparing our hearts. Preparing to be transformed, preparing for the chance to become connected with God. And so we say, Come Quickly Lord Jesus. And when you do come, this time there will be room for you in the Inn, the Inn in our Hearts.
