RUDOLPH, THE RED-NOSED T REX

Ah, the mind of a 4-year-old. Her sister has transferred to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, “U.N.L” for short. But Maddy informed us that her sister goes to “U.N.Elf.”

It makes kind of a fun picture: an avuncular dwarf in a colorful hat standing on a box so that he can be seen over the podium for his lecture class.

Then she told us that she thinks Santa doesn’t really use reindeer with his sleigh, but dinosaurs. They’re bigger and stronger, and Santa can get down those chimneys a lot faster by sliiiiiiiding down the long neck of the Brontosaurus.

Ah, but think of polishing all the jingle bells for those enormous behemoths!

PRAYER REQUEST: A friend named Mike will begin treatment again next week for a recurrent cancer. He has a cheerful attitude but requests prayer. Oh, Lord, grant Mike a heapin’ helpin’ of love as he undergoes this trial. As author Gary Chapman puts it, the five love languages are Quality Time, Words of Affirmation, Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. May Mike bask in all of those as he battles that cancer en route to total healing, Father God. (1 John 4:8)
