Usage
When I hear the word Covenant, there is a tension – part of me remembers the usually formal, solemn, and binding agreement, often involved with treaties and international laws.
But then the other part of me remembers Indiana Jones and the Lost Ark of the Covenant – a favourite movie and LEGO video game in this household.
Our family have enjoyed many video games, as well as board and card games over the years.
I’m sure that we’ll be playing many over the Festive period, as well as building LEGO!
Whatever you are doing over this period, I hope it has deepened the relationships you cherish and given you some time to rest before starting again next year!
