oh come, oh come

well, here I am back involved in real life and the technological world. I'm trying hard to catch up on life, friendships, relationships, hobbies...everything!

I just helped with mid-winter training. the concept of anticipation and Christmas joy is often the focus! I think one of my most fond memories will be singing "oh come oh come Emmanuel" the catch was that we sang the verses in a mixed up backwards order. "oh come oh come Emmanuel" didn't come until last. and the "rejoice" chorus didn't appear between verses...it only came at the end. as we neared the end of the song and the much anticipated verse and chorus, I could feel the anticipation and excitement rising in the room. and then the rejoice let loose! it was so good! God is so good! so excited about this Christmas season!!
