Christmas Time

I love this time of year,
autumn leaves have fallen.
The trees are bare and beautiful.
Frost covers the ground each morning like
a handmade homespun quilt. Squirrels
and birds scamper to do last minute
"winter shopping" from trees and bushes
as the cold sets in.

I love the winter night sky, it seems
to glow with the same sense of
anticipation today that it must have
those many years ago as the world and the
heavens awaited our dear Saviour's birth.

This Christmas I want to appreciate more,
the real reason for the season. I want
that to be my main gift to those I love
and care about. I am so blessed, I have
so much more than I deserve. I want to never
forget the sacrifice God made in order for
me to have all that I have, for me to be all
that I am.
Let my gift to Him in return be to sing of His
Glory and Goodness, His Mercy and Kindness.
He fills my life with peace and joy and those are
exclusive gifts found only thru Him.

I wish a Happy Christmas to everyone and hope
we truly all remember that HE is the reason
for the season.

Merry Christmas
