How bravely Emma Eggings spoke out about her husband, but why does the media have to put her through such torture. She is justly proud of her husband who lived a life that was bound to be fraught with danger. I'm sure it was the life he chose and wanted and he was the sort of man who could not cope with being tied to an office 9 - 5. He lived and died doing what he loved. That is not a bad epitaph to have. Over the last two years I have been saying, "Staying alive is not the most important thing." I believe knowing God is the most important thing. When you know God, death is a bonus because it takes you to Him.
Every time I take a few days off from my blog my ratings slump. Very rarely do people go back into my old posts and read again. This is a typical attitude of the human heart, always wanting something different. At this time of year we should not be greedily wondering want new thing we will be getting for Christmas. Instead we should be looking at the old, old story, which is ever new of a baby who amazingly was God incarnate, God's gift to those who will put there trust in this one who was to grow up to give His life for His people. Set aside the controversy over whether December 25th is the actual date of His birth.(Shepherds do not keep their sheep out at night in Israel in December.) and set aside time to think about the fact that He did come and ponder if He came to set you free and if your answer is ,"Yes," He will make you free indeed.
