I got up this morning remembering how special this date is to me. Why? I was baptized on the 8th day of December. I was symbolically "born again" in the waters of baptism.
So when I read through my commentary from last year on the Chapter written for the eighth day, I smiled. Then I proudly boasted, "FINDERS! KEEPERS!"
There. Now the title post has a different version to make it just a tiny bit easier if you are following along. Remember this: the version may be different but the story is the same and has been for a couple thousand years.
You know. Just sayin'.
I read through last year's post that covers today's chapter and I thought to myself, wow. The way this book has been used to prepare me for Christmas has been a pretty powerful tool. I'm loving it just as much this year...again.
Maybe from now on, to help in the history of these posts, I'll also put the date. Speaking of history, the chapter for today's reading has much to do with a very important timeline.
