The sun is shining. After last night’s snowfall, it looks like a Winter Wonderland outside.
The azure sky and fluffy white clouds sing of the birth of Christ, as the sunlight twinkles gold and silver upon the snow. LOL! Mother nature created my palette of colors today.
What a sight to behold! It is Christmas Eve!
The word,”CHRISTMAS,” is made up of two words.
“CHRIST,” Our Savior and “Mas,” the shortened version of the word,”MASS.” So my friends, it is a celebration of Christ The Lord.
As I sip my Cup of Fancy, (Holiday Blend by Simpson and Vail) and inhale a pumpkin scone, the scents of the holidays fill me with nostalgia.
*My Mom and Granny making Christmas Dinner.
*Baking….decorating.
I remember as soon as I got out of high school for Christmas break, Granny would take us to Frisches (a Cincinnati, OH favorite), then we would drive around to look at all the homes decorated with lights.
Farmer and I have created our own nostalgia, over 52 years. LOLOL…He is so like his dad, and loves to decorate.
He decorates all of our archways..and puts the tree together. I decorate the tree and put up the Nativity.
Today Farmer and I will do a lot of preparation ahead of time.
Thankfully, all the boys and family will be here this year. My Daughter-in law’s mother so deserves a share of the holidays, so often, we had our Christmas on Dec. 22, 23, 26…according to their wishes.
Going to Catholic Mass is a given. Remember friends, I am Born Again Nondenominational. It is an intimate relationship with Christ, and his blood sacrifice on the cross, that places your name in The Lambs Book of Life.
So on this Blessed Day of the Virgin Birth, I praise You, ABBA, for sending your Son, Jesus Christ….born of the Virgin Mary.
Father, Thank You for blessing the world on this day of memorial.
John 14:6-7 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to The Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
John 14:10-11 “Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not my own. Rather, it is The Father, that is living in me, who is doing the work.
John 14:15-17 “If you love me, you will obey what I command. And I will ask the Father and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever-The Spirit of Truth.”
John 3:16 “God so loved the world that He gave his one and only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”
