Weekend of December 28-29
"If at first you don't succeed, try, try again."
But change something, for to do the same thing over and over
and expect a different result is foolishness.

Extend Christmas a few days
December 26-27
Its the day after Christmas and people seem anxious to get back to normal (whatever
that is). Why can't we extend the spirit of Christmas at least a few more days. Why can't
we smile and wish each other Merry as we did the past week. I want to hold onto the
joy and love of Christmas and not go back to "normal" quite yet. Who knows maybe the
multitude of angels will sing again...
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, peace and goodwill toward men." (Look 2:14)

Merry Christmas
Christmas Day 2013
Merry Christmas to all.
Less we forget
"Behold I bring you good tidings of great joy to all people."
For born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."
(Luke 2:11)

No Wise men Christmas Eve
December 24, 2013
We read in Matthew that the Magi (wise men) arrive in Bethlehem and "on coming to the
house, they saw the child with his mother Mary and they bowed down and worshiped him."
HOUSE! What happened to the stable?
It took the wise men over a year to travel to the new king. Which explains later why the paranoid
King Herod ordered all children in Bethlehem age two or younger slain.
The wise men obey God and act on faith.
"And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod they returned by
another route," (Matthew 2:12)

Toll Taker at Christmas
December 20 2013
It is Christmas week and the front page of a newspaper pictured two toll booths with green lights, one had a line of traffic the other devoid of vehicles. Why?
The caption explained that the commuters had lined up to say thank you to a friendly toll taker who was serving his last day on the job.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart as working for the Lord, not for men."
(Colossians 3:23)
