Christmas Cards!

I know, I'm a terrible blogger, let's get that out of the way. Better? Good!

Every year our church does this thing where you can send Christmas cards to people within the church, and the high school youth group organizes the cards, and then families pick them up at church. Tonight, we sorted the cards out, and, since I was there I just took mine with me tonight...and, of course, I opened them. (what? you're shocked someone thought of me??)

I'm not the type to send Christmas cards. I mean, I'm single and live at home, so I can piggyback on Mom & Dad's card and get away with it. And, I don't know, it just seems weird for me to send cards...sorta like when I first started blogging. Now, normally I just take my cards (whether Christmas, birthday, whatever), see who they're from (make a mental note if they've spelled my name wrong :D ), and ignore all of the fancy poetic writing that Hallmark or whoever has added to the card (NOTE: if it's a personal note from someone, I read it...I'm not THAT shallow) I decided tonight to look at the cards again once I got home, and to actually take the time to read what was on the cards.

There was one card in particular that had a pretty cool quote, or quip, or whatever you call it, so I'm gonna make it my newest blog. Enjoy! And hopefully I can get some time to make a 'real' blog post.

"If our greatest need had been information, God would have sent us an educator;

If our greatest need had been technology, God would have sent us a scientist;

If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent us an economist;

If our greatest need had been pleasure, God would have sent us an entertainer;

But our greatest need was forgiveness, so God sent us a Savior."

  1. Did you notice it was in hot pink too? I like that quote. I may have to steal that one too.
