HAVE A VERY BLESSED MERRY CHRISTMAS~!



And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."



Wishing you all a very blessed and Merry Christmas!


Lord, this is my prayer
Not only on Christmas Day
But until I see You face to face
May I live my life this way:

Just like the baby Jesus
I ever hope to be,
Resting in Your loving arms
Trusting in Your sovereignty.

And like the growing Christ child
In wisdom daily learning,
May I ever seek to know You
With my mind and spirit yearning.

Like the Son so faithful
Let me follow in Your light,
Meek and bold, humble and strong
Not afraid to face the night.

Nor cowardly to suffer
And stand for truth alone,
Knowing that Your kingdom
Awaits my going home.

Not afraid to sacrifice
Though great may be the cost,
Mindful how You rescued me
From broken-hearted loss.

Like my risen Savior
The babe, the child, the Son,
May my life forever speak
Of who You are and all You've done.

So while this world rejoices
And celebrates Your birth,
I treasure You, the greatest gift
Unequaled in Your worth.

I long to hear the same words
That welcomed home Your Son,
"Come, good and faithful servant,"
Your Master says, "Well done."

And may heaven welcome others
Who will join with me in praise
Because I lived for Jesus Christ
Not only Christmas Day

A THOUGHT.........

"People generally think of forgiveness as the flip side of remorse, the obligation of a response to an apology. But forgiveness is to open our better selves, bear our wounds as the cost of love and caring - rare, transcendent, without strings.........

TO KNOW HER... IS TO LOVE HER!






This is one amazing woman! She's always been here for me. She is my grandmother. We call her Mamaw! She was one of 6 kids raised by a single mother. She married my grandfather at a young age. They worked hard and raised two children of their own. My mother and my uncle. She also raised her two younger brothers after her mother passed away at a very young age. She is nothing short of wonderful! I've never seen her turn anyone who needed help away. Always protecting her "own" with her life! I don't know a soul who could say one bad word against her. Everyone who meets her can't help but to love her! I have so many memories with her . Everything from just being with her... her advice...her love...her back rubs or teaching me to quilt and pick berries from the woods. She's very sick now and in so much pain. I know that we all grow older and deal with things. I am just amazed at how she keeps fighting . The way she deals with her pain is admirable! I hope when I'm her age I will have made as big of difference in someone's life as she has made in mine. To know her ...... Is to love her!

REMEMBERING OUR TROOPS



Scroll to the bottom of this page and listen to the song written by one of our soliders fighting in Iraq. It will touch your heart . You may also use that same site to send a solider a Christmas postcard. You may use a pre-made card or create your own. Have a safe and blessed holiday season!
