Merry Christmas from our Home to Yours!

But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold,

I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;

for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior,

who is Christ the Lord.  This will be a sign for you:

you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

And suddenly there appeared with the angel

a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, 

“Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.”

Luke 2:10-14

 

This Christmas we rejoice in a new way, the preciousness of the birth of a SAVIOR.  What an assurance we have of where Tom is spending his first Christmas because of the baby born in a manger!  Without this assurance we would have no hope...and HOPE is what gets us through our days.  We pray that this same HOPE, the hope of Jesus, is what you are celebrating today!

It was fun for me to see the boys put on pink for our family Christmas picture!  I'm not sure they were as excited to wear pink as they were to honor me in my fight in breast cancer.  Pink is the color of breast cancer awareness along with the word "HOPE"...our hope is not in cancer research but in the Master Physician who heals all diseases and brings real hope to a hurting world.

"Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing,

so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

Romans 15:13
