Dean P. Demos

Tomorrow is the last day of school for TCS for 2012.  We then begin our Christmas break.  Likewise, I get a break from my Monday-Thursday afternoon visits to Dr. G’s office for a Velcade injection.  I rejoice … on both accounts!

The Demos family will attend the annual Christmas Eve Candlelight service at Trinity Fellowship together (minus the Mark Demos family who is up in Minneapolis).  Then, some good, relaxed family time as we “destroy the living room” unwrapping gifts, eat holiday meals, and watch a movie or two.

God gives us seasons of refreshing.  I can never plan them … they just come when I really need them.  Paul said the Lord would not “Suffer us to be tempted above that we are able, but … with the temptation make a way to escape that we may be able to bear it.”  He made a way!

Medication side effects, energy swings, school concerns, and sleepless nights have all been swirling around in my life for the past two weeks.  This break looks very appealing to me right about now.  Thank you, Jesus.
