Today is a day when Christmas time is hiding from me. In my heart of hearts, I am struggling to celebrate. I still feel love for Jesus...who came to a weary world...

He can come to me today...

It is amazing to me how things change in my life so fast and so often. I wonder if everyone is the same. I seem to be made to move and change. I would like to stay in my cozy home...it seems I will not be able to...I am not so much sad about it as I am numb about it...it is still Christmas time...

Time for caring and loving and giving and singing...it is still time for smiles and hugs and memories and ministries...

it is still time for missing our moms, our dads, our sisters, our brothers, our nieces, our nephews, our grandmas, our daughters, our sons, our husbands, our wives, our grandpas, our aunties, our uncles, our cousins and our friends...you know...the ones who have already moved on...we miss them so much...

It is time for quiet and prayer and soft songs and gentle moments...and reading and movies with happy endings...

Christmas is the time for.....all of this stuff...Christmas is here...it has not vanished...it is here....I am so thankful...Christmas is Jesus Christ...."FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON. THAT WHOSOEVER WOULD BELIEVE IN HIM, WILL NEVER DIE, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE"...JOHN 3:16

I love God and I love People
