PREFIX PERFECTION!

Prefix perfection, or as wordsmith friend, farmer Doris, reminds me---a segue to goodness from reality when God uses them in our lives for His glory.
What a wonderful reminder on Wordsmith Wednesday! (2 Corinthians 2 :14a)

ADVENT SUNDAY #3

How refreshing to pick up the morning paper on this third Sunday of Advent and read a very appropriate "published" scripture.
Titus 3:4-7 reminds us of the ,joy believers have because of the LOVE of God' who gave His son---His indescribable gift, (2 Corinthians 9:15) the hope of eternal life! Thanks be to God!

MEET THE SHEEP---ZEB

Zeb is the Christmas drummer in the Really Woolly sheep series. Zeb  sits above the stocking of #3 grand who came into the world just 26 days before Christmas in 2005, the year this sheep appeared in th Collectors' Edition Series 1.
The Hebrew meaning for Zeb is a gift of Jehovah. 
In the Really Woolly story, Zeb plays the drum as a way to remember the little heartbeat of love he heard on that Christmas once so long ago. (Luke 2:17-20, NIV)

generosi-TEA

It's December.
Christmas is just around the corner.....a great time of year to sip a cuppa generosity-TEA, sweetened with a heaping spoon of God's grace. (2 Corinthians 9:8)
  • All is God's, we just give back.
  • Generosity is rooted in the grace of God.
  • Generous people change the world.
  • Generosity is about our Spirit, not our resources.
  • God loves a cheerful giver. (2 Corinthians 9:7)
Thanks be to God for HIs inexpressible gift. (2 Corinthians 9:15)

MEET THE SHEEP--HOPE

Hope is the sheep that sits above the youngest grand's stocking.
Hope is holding on to unopened gifts of possibilities. After all that's what hope is.
Is peace a possibility in our world today? I hope so!
Does the power of love reign in our own families? I hope so!
Are our prayers laced with hope and love? I hope so.

He                       Harness                    Hold
Offers                  Omnipotent              Onto  
Peace                   Power of                  Prayers
Eternal                Emmanuel                Everyday

I hope we all unwrap these gifts* from the heart to share with one another this Christmas!

*At Allen bible Church the Advent candle of hope was lit.

MEET THE SHEEP........

Meet the sheep.........the ovines that bedeck my mantle once a year. 
(Fresh magnolia leaves will be added soon.) 
This intro is to hold my place and my thoughts until my energy returns and I can complete entry.
Pic with magnolia still in process.
Would love for "Santa" to bring me Jake for one of my "J" boys!

MEDITATING MONDAYS' MOMENTS

When a Monday begins with a continuation of Saturday and Sunday sickness one, at least this one, can lose her focus. My body was out of steam. There was no zip or zest, just weariness. But God....brought a verse into focus.
"Don't burn out; keep yourself fueled and aflame." (Romans 12:11, MSG)

How does one do that when she is physically spent? Start where you are. 
Look for God's hand.

Be fully present in the present so God can present His perfect present. (Taylor Park)
God's grace is our best present.

Remind me daily that even the smallest of moments do matter.

NOVEMBER FROST MOON

A picture for the ages (11/19/2021 5;34 am CST).....because the next Frost Moon/ partial lunar eclipse won't be seen in North America won't be until 2100! It was the longest partial lunar eclipse since 1440, and the longest until 2669.
Glory....to the one who made the moon for the seasons. (Psalm 104:19)
