Reflections on CBF Meeting at Gingerbread Land

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

                     It is my joy to reflect upon the evening we spent together at Gingerbread Land! We arrived to grounds freshly covered with powdery winter snow! A giant snowman with a mint-striped derby welcomed us with a smile. One by one, Santas, reindeer, angels, elves, and other merrymakers began to arrive, gazing at the scene before us. Our haloed hostess lexluthorswife invited us to come and see her mansion. "Don't eat my house!" she warned us sternly, but with a wink. We walked up a pathway of candy canes, gumdrops and jellybeans to behold a giant home filled with the aroma of fresh gingerbread. The high pitched roof was covered with sweet snowy icing, and a smiling gingerbread man above the entrance seemed to reach out for a holiday hug. We walked through the double doors to a large living room made of treats! Stockings were hung by the chimney with care. A glass of milk and some cookies were set up nearby for hopes of a soon visit by one very special Elf. A long dining table was set with Christmas china, and fresh baked goods were ready to be sampled. After a second glance at the portrait of an unlikely Santa, (could that be Mr. Luthor?) we hopped up the steps to the loft. There we found a candy-colored King sized bed! We crawled into this cozy place just long enough to see visions of sugarplums dance in our heads!

                     Next, we ventured outside, where two chilly snowmen were warming their mittens by a campfire! More snowmen with trumpets announced from the lot that there were plenty of trees ready to be taken home. Some trees were brightly lit and others stood ready for the children to decorate. As the winds picked up, we scurried into the Igloo Cafe for hot cocoa and sweets. All the decor, even the tree and the art reflected the white and blue colors found in glaciers of Alaska. A restroom sign and a framed cartoon brought a chuckle to the grown-ups as an arcade game machine kept their thawing kids busy. Upon leaving the Cafe, who did we discovered was landing from their flight? None other than Santa Claus in his sleigh, led by a herd of reindeer! And who was the VIP passenger on that sleigh? Why, it was miniature lexluthorswife, Santa's pet, whispering to him that she "was not indeed naughty, but nice!"

                     Nearby was a gigantic snow globe dance floor to encompass either a waltzing couple or a party of carolers! Decorated with snowflakes, the giant globe had an active snowfall inside! It was an amazing thing to dance under this globe! It gave us the experience of feeling so miniature, just as if we were the figures in a snow globe on someone's shelf!

                    Next, lexluthorswife invited us to come to the Lord's Manger! Pretty as a Christmas card, we beheld the Nativity scene, even the little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay. The wise men brought Him gifts as the shepherds beheld Him with wonder. And just appearing from a long walk in the desert, a giant Bactrian camel came by to pay his respects. His expression was so serene and so sweet, yet somehow I couldn't help but laugh when I beheld this doubly-humped wonder. Just as are all of us CBF members, this creature is certainly uniquely made!

                    Near the manger scene were found more giant snow globes and colorful Christmas trees. Next, standing in front of a forest was a 40-foot tall smiling snowman holding his broom! He had stopped sweeping to gaze at the village of Christmas light scenes nearby. Next came a beautiful village of gingerbread houses of brownstone! One even looked like the White House!

                    In the middle of Gingerbread Land was a giant stage area carpeted in red velvet. It had two giant toy soldiers each 48 feet tall. They were holding up a large projector screen while keeping an eye on the behavior of those visiting Santa's wonderland. The stage was filled with large wrapped presents for good avatars. Santa Claus invited us to come sit with him in his big chair on the stage, so that he might know our secret wishes. We waited patiently to chat while humming along to the carols and enjoying the sights.

                    The ice rink looked so inviting that we all chose to congregate there for the rest of the evening. Some danced on the ice and others stood in the risers that surrounded it. Our host, lexluthorswife, put on old fashioned Gospel music videos so many began to sing and praise the Lord. "Lexy" began to testify of Jesus her Savior then others joyfully followed suit, inspired by her bold faith. Testimonies, prayers, praise and thanks were lifted in a spirit of freedom. It was such a witness to the multitude of visitors who came by on this night. They heard of the One true Savior, the King of Kings, born in a lowly manger, to save us from our sins. Our faith was strengthened and our joy was multiplied as we exalted the Lord together. God is sharing with us the Gift of His love and the comfort of His Holy Spirit. May Jesus continue to shower His blessings on every member of the Christian Believers Fellowship!

All My Love,
