Mosaic Monday



When we give each other our Christmas presents in his name, let us remember that he has given us the sun and the moon and the stars, the earth with its forests and mountains and oceans and all that lives and moves upon them...And to save us from our own foolishness and from all our sins, he came down to earth and gave himself.  Venite adoremus Dominum.  ~~Sigrid Undset~~  

Wishing everyone a very Blessed Christmas.  I will have a busy week with family coming and going.  I'm not sure how much time I will be able to visit here!!!  Will make every effort to visit you at "HOME."  
~~~^j^~~~
Thanks be to God!!!

Haiku My Heart

Posted by Picasa

The anticipation does not diminish with age.  The Glory of this season is infectious and of all the "germs" with which one should be infected I think the gloria-in-excelius strain should be passed on to everyone.  I'm just saying, "Imagine an epidemic of peace, love, joy, and goodwill to ALL!!!!!"

~~~^j^~~~
Thanks be to God!!!

Today I also join Meri for Share the Joy Thursday.   For I believe we need to find it in my life every day no matter the realities in which we live.  God is Good in so many ways even in times of trial.

Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmas-time.  ~~Laura Ingalls Wilder
