THIS IS A TRUE STORY.
"Father in Jesus Name, we Thank You Lord, from the bottom of our hearts, for all the wonderful things.. that You have prepared for us to receive from You this day..especially of 'Your Love"... Amen...
I
will never forget one of the best Christmas we had in our house. The kids came down all excited.. we gathered in the living room around the tree, sitting on the couch, and the floor.. and I began to hand out the gifts to each and everyone. As they were tearing through the paper, unwrapping them..their eyes bulging, mouths open..and exclamations of joy.. their gifts sitting beside them.. and saying "Thank you daddy!" 
"This is what I wanted!" With "hugs and kisses"... I told them.. "There is More!".. They looked a little shocked..but intrigued..as I reached behind the tree and exposed "More!" And they Loved it!.. and the "Thank yous began all over".. As I stood there looking at them being so satisfied and ecstatic, eyes gleaming.. I got there attention and exclaimed.. "That isn't all because there is More!" 
Oh my! I didn't think their little hearts could stand it! 
I went into the other room.. behind the big wall, where I had hidden a few things "special" and brought them out.. and gave them to them! Oh! Daddy!! As they opened these gifts, tears of Joy and gratitude filled their eyes.. because they were "Special Gifts" just for each of them.. 
And.. "Hugs and Kisses" with Thank Yous and Jumping up and down! 
We picked up the paper and put it in a bag, making sure that nothing was thrown away that was a Gift, or good..and I said once again to them.. "Hey, guess what? (as they looked at me) "There Is More!" ... You should have seen the looks on their faces..it was priceless! ... And, as I reached into the tree.. on the branches.. and took out these "little special things" all wrapped up with their names on them.. and handed to each of them even "More!".. they couldn't believe it.. Watches, and little things just for them.. bracelets with charms, and heart to heart "gifts" especially from "me" to them! 
They were so touched.. and the Love filled the room! And, the "Hugs and Kisses" began all over..but, with more meaning than just excitement this time.. They Loved their Daddy! Yes, it was a very "Special Christmas" .. one I will never forget.. I was asked by my oldest.. "Dad? Is that all?"... For now I said,always remember, as far as me Loving you? "There Is Always More!" .....Just like the Lord,... when you think "that is all"... He Always Has More! Lord, ..."Father, In Jesus Name... We Thank you Lord..for Your continual supply of "Love" to us by Your Spirit into our hearts and lives "everyday".. and we do not forget, to always expect from You..to "Always Have More" when we least expect it, and especially when we need to be Loved by "You"
Love the doggie!
