PPF: Reason For The Season

Happy Paint Party Friday to all my friends!


Mary. How well do we know her?
She was a peasant girl,
not a queen,
very young, a teenager.
Where did she get the faith to say,
"Let it be done to me according
to your word?"

 
Are we able to say it?
To say to God,
"Let it be done to me
according to Your will?"

If not for her "YES!",

we would not be celebrating our Saviour's birth.

and all the gifts He came to bring us!

 

John the Baptist recognized Jesus

when he was in his mother's womb.

He leaped for joy!

Are we filled with God's spirit that we leap for joy

when we see him?

When we see him in his most

 distressing form, for instance?

In the beggars on the street,

the prisoners, the sick?

Let us take the time to visit Jesus

this season, and bring Him gifts!

Every week I choose one wonderful visitor

who leaves a comment

to receive an ATC from me.

I know it takes so much time and effort

to leave a comment

and I appreciate it soooo much!

This week,

Random.org chose

 #19, Judith Knowles.

of Wholehearted Home.

Visit Judith for some 

heartfelt wisdom and ideas.
