FIRE

A fireplace is a wonderful thing to have as the days get colder. Snow may start to fly any day now but we are not worried we have a four-wheel drive. Personally I am very happy to stay in and keep warm. Visiters are welcome anytime to share the warmth with me.
Love and friendship warms all our hearts but there is always the sadness of missing those we will not be with. We can see each other on our computers and on our face books so that i a miracle.
The Christmas story is about a birth that came through suffering and pain before the joyful angels sang their song of love and peace.
A birth not in a grand temple but in a lowly manger that was transformed into a holy place.
A birth announced to the outcasts and for all the unloveable to hear the glory of the angels song.
Christmas brings out many feelings in us and some of them need to be healed
God has become one of us to heal us and give us new life.
