Christmas is UP! La

Aw....Christmas Lights....We now officially look like Christmas around here!! Amazing what a few hours of decorating will do. Skywalker and his cousin did a wonderful job decorating the tree. Now, he thinks I should already have presents ready to go under the tree. What a joy it is to see his little face light up. I believe it is brighter than all the lights on the Christmas tree. Thank you, God...for allowing me to see his sweet smile. (Last week of November)

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did.

Let your boat of life be light Packed with only what you need --A homely home and simple pleasures,One or two friends, worth the name,Someone to love and someone to love you,A cat, a dog, and a pipe or two,Enough to eat and enough to wear,And a little more than enough to drink...For thirst is a dangerous thing.
-- Jerome K Jeromefrom "Three Men in a Boat"

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.Philippians 4:12,13 NIV

The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginnings but not its end.

The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have. The richest person is not the one who has the most, but the one who needs the least.

"We can make our plans,But the LORD determinesour steps" Proverbs 16:9

"Let us not forget what is best remembered or may we not remember what is best forgotten."

Live simply. Love generously. Care Deeply. Speak Kindly. Leave the Rest to God.

Worry is a robber of time and energy. Take comfort within that God's power is what we truly need. He knows our needs before we can even ask for them.

If you worry, you didn't pray. If you prayed, don't worry. Faith is the ability to not panic.

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you, too, can become great."-Mark Twain
