Merry Christmas

Ornaments on our tree share a wonderful story:

"And she gave birth to her first born, a son. She wrapped him
in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room
for them in the inn."


"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 said "Do not be afraid.
I bring you good news of great joy for all the people."
"Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you;
He is Christ the Lord."

"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."

May you receive the peace and joy that God has so graciously given to us!
Merry Christmas

Hope





It is hard to believe that my last post was for Thanksgiving. The time has flown by and then came the tragedy at Newtown that leaves me speechless. Yesterday I walked outside and saw this amazing complete rainbow and knew I needed to share it. A reminder that God is here and offers us
His love and hope.
