God Is SO Good!!!

One-by-one as I delivered each present and Clarence's tree skirt became less visible, my excitement grew as much as his. If by chance there was a doubt in my mind that he was excited, it was quelled by the fact that he left proof under his tree in the form of badly re-wrapped gifts. I'd have to snicker every time I saw his attempted cover up job.

On Christmas Eve I waited until I knew he was asleep then secretly delivered his Santa present and stuffed stocking.

The next morning everyone on our hall was awoken by Clarence's thrilled, boisterous cry's of joy as he opened his gifts. He could not wait to show off his new things. He went door-to-door happily bragging about Santa's visit.

By the time Clarence reached my room at the opposite end of the hall he was physically worn out, but emotionally energized. Out of breath he exclaimed, "Merrym! Look at what God and Santa brought me! God is good!! Very very good!!!" I answered victoriously, "All the time, Bud! All the time!!!"

No one is good--except God alone.
Mark 10:18

I am blessed
