Today is Christmas at Kivu! Sometimes the over-festiveness of camp parties truly tricks my mind into celebrating holidays. That is exactly the case today! From the Christmas sweaters at breakfast, the Christmas music during clean up, the snickerdoodle cookies for snack, a Christmas dinner, the carols, gingerbread house decorating, and lots of Christmas fun, we have created Christmas in July.
However, while my mind is tricked into the worldly celebration of Christmas, my heart is reminded of the eternal perspective of Christmas. God, our Father, sent His Son as a man to walk with His people on earth, bear our sins, defeat death, and rise from the dead to prepare a way for us to spend eternity with Him! What a celebration! We are blessed at Kivu to celebrate both the festivities and abundant beauty of Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
