Christmas is near

We are having a beautiful fall day in fact the last few days. Everyday is a beautiful day but I mean we are in Nov. and no jackets.

I brought my Christmas Tree up from the basement today. I love just having the lights on it. Jesus is the light of the world. I start now and do little by little decorating. My husband and I have a open house the second Sat. of Dec. so I have to be ready.

Christmas is the best time of the year. You can talk about Jesus to people and they don't think that you are nuts.

I am helping a neighbor out watching their children and the other day the four year old and I were talking. She already has her Christmas songs out and we were listening to them. We were talking about Jesus and I asked her if she knew that Jesus wasn't a baby anymore. She told me she hadn't heard that. I told her Jesus was a man like her daddy was. I'll tell you kids can be so cute when they open there mouth.

As we come into Thanksgiving and Christmas lets remember that He isn't a babe in a manger anymore He is our Saviour. He is seated at the right hand of the Father and daily makes intercession for all of us.

Just a little nugget for now about Christmas because as those who can't get past tradition I have been told that we have Thanksgiving first.

I don't know about you but I have Thanksgiving everyday. God is so good.
