Hi everyone! I wanted to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas.

May you have joy, for this season celebrates the greatest source of joy the world has ever known.

May you find peace and grace. And when you find that your Christmas isn't a perfect Norman Rockwell painting,  full of peace, or pinterest worthy, remember that the first Christmas was celebrated in a smelly stable by a teenage mother and her man in a strange town in an occupied country. The party goers were all night shift workers (shepherds), and the gifts arrive late--by a couple of years--those camels the wise men rode were slow!

May you find rest as you wrap up your year and start a new one.

I'm planning on being back next week! Have a great one!
