White Christmas!!

We never thought that when we moved to North Carolina we would be able to have a White Christmas but just look at the beauty of it. We were all so excited when it started snowing on Christmas day and then all through the night and we woke up to a beautiful Winter Wonderland.

My Christmas cards for 2010

I hope that everyone has a Wonderful and Blessed Christmas this year and the Happiest of New Years to come.

No School Today!!!!

The boys are off school today because of Icy Roads. Lisa doesn't have to go in until this afternoon. We have my son-in-law's parents visiting for the holidays and the kids were very excited to see them. Should be a great time visiting and having fun with the kids. Hope this finds you all well.

Holidays are getting close!

I hope everyone has been enjoying the excitement and anticipation of the upcoming Christmas season. I, for one, am still not ready. I think it will all get done at the last minute and just in time. We have family coming into town tomorrow to spend the holidays with us and we are all looking forward to that. After all, Celebrating the birth of Jesus and spending time with family is what it is all about to me.

Wonderful time last night

Mike and I had a great time at the Christmas Around the World dinner at church last night. Great food and great fellowship with my church family.

Church tonight at 7:00

A church is just a building for some people. A building where hypocritical people gather to check off their visit for the week. They go to say that they were there. They leave the same...unchallenged...bored...unmoved...and certainly untouched by the Presence of a Holy and Loving God. Church doesn't mean anything to a lot of people.

But to me...it is so much more.
I can't imagine not wanting to go.

My church is so dear to me. It is the place where God is waiting to reign down upon us. Where He speaks through His Word. Where He challenges how I think, how I act, and convicts me of sin. A place where hugs abound from people who pray for you. An open altar to ask for help, repentance, and intercede for myself and so many others who are hurting. My church is an extension of my family. It is grace-filled and full of people who are at best pathetic without the life-changing power of Jesus Christ.

Where did this year go?

I woke up this morning and realized that this is the last month of 2010. Where did this year go? Life seems to be moving at lightning speed these days. It is hard for me to comprehend that there are only 24 days until Christmas. I am not even close to being ready. We have the decorating finished but that is just about all we have done. We need to get busy and finish our shopping and baking and wrapping and shipping. Wow! I get tired just thinking about it.

I hope everyone is ready for this hectic but joyful time of year. I pray that each and everyone of you remember the reason for the season is Jesus and give him all the praise and glory in all things. Please join me in spreading the word so that everyone will remember to keep Christ is Christmas
