Favorite Poems

Hi! I would like to share this poem with you it is a favorite of mine!
Sheltered
Through the pines,
  where soft breezes blow,
  through the pines,
  we see traces of snow,
  through the pines,
  where the birds build their nest,
  through the pines,
  a doe and her fawn take rest.
  Into God's arms,
  we can safely go,
  there His shelter He will bestow,
  giving us comfort and sweet rest.
  Remember, when those storms,
  start to blow,
  into God's arms,
  we can safely go.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:8-11KJV“.

My Favorite Quotes

I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.  ~Charles Dickens


It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air.  ~W.T. Ellis


Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself...
~Norman Wesley Brooks, "Let Every Day Be Christmas," 1976


A Christmas candle is a lovely thing;
It makes no noise at all,
But softly gives itself away.
~Eva Logue


Christmas is not as much about opening our presents as opening our hearts.  ~Janice Maeditere


Sing hey!  Sing hey!
For Christmas Day;
Twine mistletoe and holly.
For a friendship glows
In winter snows,
And so let's all be jolly!
~Author Unknown   


I  wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Snow flakes

Snow flakes, snow flakes slowly fluttering down, softly, so softly touching the ground, snow flakes, snow flakes, so beautiful and white, covering the trees and ground, what a beautiful sight. This reminds me of how God washes away our scarlet sins and makes us white as snow, so we can brighten up His world below.
