My first Christmas as a Christian in a very long time, and thus significant. Despite the near-complete lack of outer observances in the non-Christian country where I live, "somehow or other, it came just the same." I wish a very merry Christmas to my little circle of readers and friends.

"My first Christmas as a Christian in a very long time" - This happened so incrementally (over the years since you began commening at my blog in 2010, I think) that I had not really been aware of the timing when there was a crossing of the threshold. Anyway, Merry Christmas to both of you (plus the animals) - enjoy the break.
Thanks, Bruce. I'm not really sure when I crossed the threshold, either, only that it's already happened by now. Unfortunately, there isn't any break to enjoy, as Christmas is just another working day here. I won't get a real break until Chinese New Year. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I am happy to hear about the crossed threshold. Happy Christmas, Wm.
And a Merry Christmas to you and yours, Frank.
