December 22, 2007 It was nearly 60 today and we are gathering the Henry Schurter central Illinois family together for Christmas. Tim and Angie have traveled 12 hours to be with us. The oldest is my 90 year old dad and youngest is a great-grandchild who is in fourth grade. What a wonderful season, as our world fights various conflicts, dad fights to zip a zipper on a new coat. My sister-in-law graciously helps dad get the coat on in the midst of a group of people waiting to open their presents. I think Jesus arrived in a world full of conflict, He arrived in a stable setting and was so feared that many youngsters were put to death to try and eliminate who He would become. May all your families have a wonderful Christmas season. May Jesus bring peace and reconciliation to your family.
