and just so i remember them next year:
1. clarity in where i'm going - to see him working in everything, opening the right doors and closing the others (even if my emotions say otherwise)
2. peace at home - to be united in the Word... for me to take my place as an adult
3. to be increased - in my ability to multitask, to address people's needs, speak into people's lives, to be great in whatever position i am called to be in at any point in time
4. healing & perfect eyesight
...
heh. i just looked through previous posts - couple months ago i would've taken a photo of each christmas present and blogged about them to commemorate the event. hmmm have i changed that much?

Dear Mr & Mrs Geckeler,
Thank you both very much for your Christmas letter.
Please forgive me for the delay in replying due to numerous circumstances.
First and foremost let me thank you all for the money you sent me, i deeply appreciate it, and i am truly thankful
The picture by Brandon and Sonya is very meaningful, considering their young ages. It's wonderful to know that they can depict
Jesus's birth including the Star, the Angel, the Manger and the Shepherds and the Sheep. Very encouraging that at their young age they understand the celebration of Christ birth.
Yes God's blessings are always numerous if we remain obedient to His word; Your trip to the Holy land must have been so meaningful.
It must have been a difficult for Sonya but thank God as a result of her trials she was awakened to the truth; and was able
to ask your forgiveness to rekindle the old friendship.
That's what the Lord always expects us to do when there is a broken relationship. Isn't it amazing that Sonya was able to meet her
young boy friend after so many years and finally marry Him.
God's name be praised my congratulation goes out to Sonya on their marriage. Thank God for the joy He has given you both as a result of their marriage. What an opportunity for you all to visit the parts of America that you have not seen before.
Going to Austria must have been a great experience especially going upto a largest glacier in Austria. I am sure it was a breathtakingly beautiful while reading your letter i wish God would make a way for me too to see these beautiful places God has created.
What a wonderful Christmas you would have enjoyed knowing renewed friendship has made Sonya so happy. You speak of severe snow in December, but from the news i saw winter bas been so bad as never before for years. This is surely the times that the Lord coming is very near throughout the World all kinds of things are happening as according to the scripture.
The Lords says He will shake everything that could be shaken in this last days. We do not have snow even in our mountainous regions, but this year Colombo a capital of Sri Lanka where i live was unusually cold this Christmas like the highland area's
Sri Lanka is one of the most beautiful country with the Sea, Beaches, Mountains and waterfalls and access to the mountains in a few hours!!
Now that there is peace in our land you can always book a from tour from their and come here. We have a fantastic Pageant in August called a Perehera which is in the hill country call Kandy with about hundred Elephants beautifully dressed and the Sri Lankan drummers and Dancers in their colourful costumes.
This is a must if you come to Sri Lanka you will never forget it and your can Video it and take it back to show your people. If you haven't been East before this could be really an experience never to be forgotten.
I'd love to come and spent a holiday with you all and see places but I cannot save enough to do a trip anywhere. I wish I could come to Germany and get a job there, and stay permanently as the earning capacity here according to my learning is very low.
I hope to see you all sometimes God willing. Wish you both a happy prosperous 2011 with many blessings from God with my love in Him
