Cozy and Comfortable... Laura Ingalls Wilder



"They were cosy and comfortable in their little house made of logs, with the snow drifted around it and the wind crying because it could not get in by the fire."

A Christmas Quote...It's Not Over!

Matthew 2:1-2

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king,

behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, saying,

where is he that is born King of the Jews?

For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.





Christmas doesn't end on December 25th!

It begins!

Joy to the World!

The Lord is Come!

God bless you as you continue to keep your focus on Jesus Christ.

A Christmas Quote... Bob Cratchett


Then Bob proposed:
"A Merry Christmas to us all, my dears.

God bless us!"

Which all his family re-echoed.

"God bless us every one!"

said Tiny Tim, the last of all.


Charles Dickens in A Christmas Carol


God bless us every one.

Merry Christmas

A Christmas Quote... Agnes Pharo


What is Christmas?
It is tenderness for the past,
courage for the present,
hope for the future.
It is a fervent wish that every cup
may overflow with blessings
rich and eternal,
and that every path
may lead to peace.
~Agnes Pharo
Time to finish up those last few shopping details!
Wrap tonight so you won't be up
past midnight Christmas eve wrapping!
May you seek God and His peace and wisdom.

A Christmas Quote...Laura Ingalls Wilder


"Then Pa and Ma and Mr. Edwards sat by the fire
and talked about Christmas times back in Tennessee and up north in the Big Woods.

But Mary and Laura looked at their beautiful cakes

and played with their pennies and drank water out of their new cups.

And little by little they licked and sucked their sticks of candy,

till each stick was sharp-pointed on one end.

That was a happy Christmas."


~Laura Ingalls Wilder

"Little House On The Prairie," page 252


It's all in how you look at it, isn't it?

Enjoy what you have, where you are, whom you are with now.

Blessings,

Laura
