Bible verses:

"Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel. which is translated, "God with us." ~Matthew 1:23

And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid.

Then the angel said to them, :Do not be afraid for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.

~Luke 9-12

Soo thankful for December 19th!

Dear blog followers,

I just wanted to make a quick post on how THANKFUL I am that I am on this earth, spending every day with God, and family! :)

I am so lucky to have the things I have and only God would allow that :)
I am so thrilled to see what God has planned for me in my life!
Birthdays aren't just about getting presents, having a party, eating cake, or doing whatever you do for your birthday, but praising God for the years he's blessed me with!

Hark the herald angels sing.

Hark the herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!

Peace on earth and mercy mild

God and sinners reconciled"

Joyful, all ye nations rise

Join the triumph of the skies

With the angelic host proclaim:

"Christ is born in Bethlehem"

Hark! The herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!"

Christ by highest heav'n adored

Christ the everlasting Lord!

Late in time behold Him come

Offspring of a Virgin's womb

Veiled in flesh the Godhead see

Hail the incarnate Deity

Pleased as man with man to dwell

Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!"
Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace!

Hail the Son of Righteousness!

Light and life to all He brings

Ris'n with healing in His wings

Mild He lays His glory by

Born that man no more may die

Born to raise the sons of earth

Born to give them second birth

Hark! The herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!"

Snow Part 1

Here's pics of snow! Enjoy! (More like ice.)

December Flower/Bible verse of the month

(flower above is a Christmas cactus)

Matthew 5:44

"But I say to you, love your enemiees, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,

'Tis a colorful season

Take Christ out of Christmas, and December becomes the bleakest and most colorless month of the year. ~A.F. Wells
