daily chatter and update of life.

Hello, everyone. How are you doing?
Time just tics on and we have about 10 and a half weeks to Christmas.
Now that is not even funny. There is shopping to do, cakes to bake, meals to decide on.
I'm sure most of us love the Christmas celebrations but not all the work involved.
I'm not anti all the work its more about the shopping, Oh my gosh! People, pushing
Trying to get bargains, looking for the traditional sponge cake for the making of the trifle and on and on.
So we can either get totally stressed out and even down right rude about this and even reactionary and decide "we don't do the commercial Christmas thing" or We can begin to celebrate being family and having fun.
Christmas has been reduced to a Festive Holiday and there are many people who label it as a pagan time. BUT we of
course know its about Christ. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son to die for us so that we may have life and life in abundance. All who call upon the name of the Lord Jesus shall be saved. So let's not forget the reason for the season. Its a remembrance that Jesus was born to a virgin and came to earth as our saviour. How kind is our God. He takes our broken lives and exchanges it for a life in His Son. So while you are standing in that line waiting to pay for the food and pressies, remember goodwill and grace and kindness. May Jesus be formed in us more and more.
Love Rose.
