Eve of the Name of Jesus
Matthew 1:18-21, Romans 8:31-39
"Time, like an ever-rolling stream, bears all its sons away; they fly forgotten as a dream dies at the opening day."
It is an inevitable fact...the new year is about change.

Sometimes, the trophy cards will show different data. The trophy counts will be the same, my trophy level will be displayed the same, but the last earned trophies will be different. The most likely reason for this is that one of the sites that generate the cards has not updated their trophy database yet to reflect the trophies that I have earned. Until those databases are updated, the cards may show generic trophy images or no trophy images at all.
The cards will also update differently. Some require input, either my request or by visitors looking at my profile at those sites (some will update with either form of input). Others update automatically every few hours or even once a day.

"While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn."
Thus, the Savior of the World was born. Meek, humble, mild...all of these words, perhaps many others, serve to describe the scene. A young, as yet unwed, mother gives birth to a tiny child who is God among animals of all sorts, her betrothed carpenter there with her. Of all people, the dirtiest come to visit Him: those who spend their days toiling in the wilderness, shepherds. And he is laid in a trough to sleep.
"For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee."
Isn't it fitting, during this season of Advent, that we should recall John's confirmation verse? After all, just this past Sunday we heard John the Baptizer proclaim that the valleys will be filled in and the mountains and hills will be made low. This, John proclaimed, will happen in preparation to meet a coming king; the valleys will rise to meet Him, the mountains will bow down to greet Him.
