Show Notes

Don’t you love all the extra mail the month of December normally brings with it? It’s fun to open all the pretty Christmas cards and see the family photos, but I especially enjoy reading the newsy letters that are often included.

Sending such newsy letters is one of our family's longest standing holiday traditions. Not only do our annual Christmas updates help us keep in touch with distant family and friends, but they also provide an easy way to chronicle our family history and to share Christ/give testimony to God's faithfulness.

SCRIPTURES CITED:

"Bless the LORD, my soul, and do not forget any of His benefits." - Psalm 103:2

“Remember the wonders [the LORD] has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced.” - 1 Chronicles 16:12

“We will not hide them from their children but will declare to the next generation the praises of the LORD and His might, and the wonders He has performed. - Psalm 78: 4
