| Posted 12/19/2004 8:48 PM (GMT -6) |   | Hi,
I'm probably the more philosophical, less theological, more-of-a-dreamer , but I wanted to thank you - all of you - for making me feel so welcome on this board. I have really grown to appreciate this community of believers, your patience, and your insights, as I explore the Open View, and what it means for my life, how it translates into a life of relationship with the Father, with each other, and ministry. I feel privileged to be a part of this. It has challenged me, and inspired me.
The conference was wonderful. It confirmed many things in my heart, and I left with a deeper appreciation for the author, whose books I had read - for the difference that they have made in my walk with the Father, and in my prayer life. The conference was another thing that the Father used to transform my walk. God Bless you Dr Boyd, and Shelly, and your ministry at Woodland Hills.
I've grown to appreciate so many on this board. I can honestly say that I do not regret a single interaction I've had here. You've all taught me something about myself, or the Father, or ministry.
I hope that you all share the hope that I feel this season, and that your hearts and homes are filled with wonder, and with peace, and that you ponder this amazing gift we have been given - just as Mary did, so very long ago - Emmanuel!
God Bless you all, and Merry Christmas!
Jo-Anne

I, my wife, and four kids are driving south from VA tomorrow to spend Christmas with my folks in Florida. So we celebrated our Christmas this morning (can't fit all the presents in the car!). It was the most memorable Christmas ever. We all six cried through the whole morning. A lot of the gifts were more creative than ever (poetry, paintings, personalized cards). Wonderful.
What we all were most upset about was missing cold and snowy weather from having to be in Florida this Christmas. So yesterday a cold front moved through VA. It snowed from 6 PM on. Was plenty white last night when we had dinner. So this morning when we did gifts and read together it was all white outside. It was perfect. Just perfect.

Pretty short, like a sermon should be.
