Okay, Thanksgiving is over so I’m finally listening to reasonable amounts of Christmas music. I still can’t listen to those stations who broadcast nothing but Christmas Music 24/7, but I can now stand a little Christmas music peppered into the mix.
This morning our “house band” at B.G.E.A., The Tommy Coomes Band, delighted us with Christmas Carols. It was such a wonderful way to start the day especially since the last couple of weeks at work have be harried to say the least.
If that wasn’t enough when I opened my e-mail inbox another blessing awaited me. Our partner in ministry, a Fernando Ortega, sent us this video about his new Christmas album, and it made me want to bake Christmas cookies, decorate the tree, and most importantly worship the Christ child.
No other music can soothe me like Fernando’s. There is such an annointing in his music that can soothe the most anxious soul including mine which is no small feat. He also gives a good history of some of your favorite Christmas carols in the video. So, you can justify the six minutes out of your busy day by saying that you’re getting educated.
Enjoy, and if someone wants to give me his Christmas album as a Christmas gift you’d be my new best friend.
