I do have a Christmas story for you. It's not "The" Christmas story, but it'll have to do.
Cranky Guy had a gift certificate to use. He got it the other day at Church. It was to a bookstore. As you might not know, this kind of thing pleases Cranky tremendously. He came home with all kinds of ideas about what he was going to buy. Then he began to sort through the online catalog. At first, he identified $157 worth. But this raced way past the gift certificate.
He began to ratchet back. With his trusty calculator, he trimmed it to #47.50. But then Cranky began to think. Did he really want the books? Should he think more? Would he use the books again? Should he buy books his lady friend would read also?
What books would God want him to buy? Poor Cranky got more and more confused. So he turned off his computer and made some coffee.
He doesn't have to finish this off immediately. It's important but not urgent.
Maybe tomorrow we can find out what he did.
