Blender Braining at Christmas

I love this time of year! The reminder of God coming to earth as one of us, the gifts we give to others reminding us again of His gift, the traffic, the snow, the cold, and last but not least, us moving out of our house of 10 1/2 years to a small 2 bedroom apartment until we build a new house. Ok, so some of the things are not to love. (That would be the traffic, snow, cold and moving for those who need explaination.) Thank goodness the excitement of building is off setting (most of the time) the sadness of leaving a house with all the memories of my kids becoming adults and grandkids entering our lives. God is so good to give us these times of reflecting and anticipation! So before I forget (told you that the blender brain is online!) I would like to wish Merry Christmas to all, and bless you with the words from a Dennis Jernigan song:

Merry Christmas, I wish you
May joy, like snow, fall daily new
May each day find hope and truth
And memories sweet
Merry Christmas, peace on earth
May Christ reveal your depth of worth
You are why He came to earth
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
From my heart
From my heart to you

Merry Christmas, bless you friend
May every wound find grace to mend
Daily strength renewed again
By God's own hand
Merry Christmas, may you see
The way God sees you and receive
His love and life abundantly
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
From my heart
From my heart to you
