No hair brushing!!! What's next?

Okay this is really not a very serious post but neither am I. (well no one can be serious all the time.) So this past year I decided to see what would happen if I stopped brushing me hair. Well I do not have a rats nest for a hairdo. I am very pleased to announce that I have one day left and than I will have completed me new years resolution for 2011. (okay you can cheer now) It's kind of hard to believe it seems like just last month that it was 70 days and now it is 364 (tomorrow) I am very excited. Now about the "what's next?" part I have decided to go without painting my fingernails. I don't really know why I choose this but I am going to do it I am afraid that it is not quite as impressive as not brushing my hair but I am trying. I will give you a chance to affect my entire year post below what new years resolution you would like me to attempted. If possible of similar nature to the other two. I am sorry I may not be able to complete or attempt all of them but throw it at me and maybe you will help me come up with my 2012 resolution. (Just so you know having a silly resolution is a lot of fun.)


Thank you for reading my blog.

Christmas

Christmas is a time to remember how God sent his only son to be born as a baby and to die on a cross and to rise again three days later. But if you have been a christen every since you where a little kid I think you lose what Jesus coming to earth actually meant and means today. Take a step back in time with me to Mary hearing from the angel. If you where around the age of 16 to 18 and an angel appears to you and says.  “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. ³¹And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS. ³²He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. ³³ And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end.” Luke 1:31-33. Okay to kids who have grown up in church all there lives this part or scripture and the whole story of the birth of Christ sounds normal we think. "Well of course the angel appeared to Mary and told her she was going to have a baby well being a virgin. Okay think about this for a minute this is not normal. Mary having Jesus was a miracle. So stepping back to the present. God loved you so much and He created you to look exactly like you do and be who you are. Jesus died for you because you are who you are don't ever try to be someone who you aren't. So during this Christmas season remember Jesus' birth was a miracle and the day you were born you were a miracle and still are think of all the things that you can do all of the talents that God gave you to serve Him and others. You are a living miracle.
