Hello, Hello and Hello.

It's been a while, I know.  I haven't had much to say.  I break my silence tonight with good cause.I grew up celebrating Christmas by decorating the tree, enjoying the lights, gifts and good food.  We acknowlege Christmas as the celebration of Jesus Christ birth.  

Chris and I no longer decorate a tree and we know that Jesus the Messiah was probably not born in December but we do still enjoy the lights and the candles we've placed in our home.  We light candles and hang lights in honor of the Feast of Dedication which celebrates the rededication of the Temple of God to God after it had been taken over and ruled by ungodly men for years. The Lord God supernaturally preserved the olive oil in the Temple during a time when the oil was scarce and should not have lasted.  He preserved the oil so the lamps remained lit.  

We also do it in honor of our Lord and Savior who is the light of the world.  He is the greatest  gift to mankind.  The longer I live, I can truely see the beauty in Gods gift to us. There are so many wonderful things we have because of Christ.  

We give gifts to those we love because we want to be like our Heavenly Father who gives to us because he loves us.

We still enjoy good food because food is a blessing and feasting is an action that pleases God when it is done in his honor.  

So I break my silence tonight to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY LORD JESUS and to say MERRY

CHRIST DAY to those that love him too !!!!
