Have a Wonderful and Restful Sunday

*

(This is a snow globe that was given to me some years

back by a friend and neighbor)

*

Happy Sunday to you today,

*

Hope you are having a lovely Sunday!

*

I am hoping to be able to go to church

tomorrow but am feeling like I might have

a stomach virus coming on,  am so hoping

NOT!  Guess we will see tomorrow!

Tomorrow is our Christmas Contata and

we would really love to go but guess we

will see about that as well.

*

I think we are being tested on our Christmas

Spirit this year!  We are doing our dead level

best to enjoy this Season even tho we are

not feeling our best!  We are determined.!!

Tonight we put out our candles in the jars

with the epsom salt snow!

They looked lovely,  need to do a few more

but have to get the labels off the jars first!! lol

*

Once I get them all done I will take a picture

so you can see!  Guess you could say we are

going green this year!!  lol

Not really,  just too tired to put up lights.

*

Got a few more things off my list today,

got the outside of the house decorated

and pulled up some weeds and dead

flowers that need to come up.

So looks much better.

*

I will leave you with these verses

for today!

Luke 2:1-5

*

In those days Caesar Augustus, issued a decreed that

a census should be taken of the entire Roman World.

*

(This was the first census that took place while Quirinius

 was govenor of Syria.) 

*

and everyone went to his own town to register.

*

So Joseph also went up from the town of

Nazareth in Galilee to Judea,  to Bethlehem the town

of David, because he belonged to the house and

line of David.

*

He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged

to be married to him and was expecting a child.

*

*

I was just thinking I guess that would make Mary

the first unwed Mother of her day!

Never really thought of that before, but that is

probably how people would have seen it.

*

I am sure she and Joseph must have taken

some ridicule for their situation,  cause people were

 like they are today, skeptics, so they probably

said you are pregnant with a child from God,

Yea Right!  This lady is off her rocker!

*

And Joseph seems to be such a reasonable

man,  can't understand why he would believe

that story,  he must be crazy too!

*

Well, thankfully we know they weren't crazy

at all,  just obedient servants of the

Most High God!

*

What a blessing to have God's word available

to us all the time,  so we can know the true

meaning and story of Christmas!

*

Ponder His goodness to us this Christmas,

and His Great Love for Us!

*

Love,  Hugs and Blessings,
