Among Friends

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.  In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.  Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.  1 John 4:7-12

I am wishing all a Christmas filled with love, joy, and peace.  Hold in our hearts that love will overcome hate, joy will overcome despair, and peace will someday prevail.  May the Christ child bless all with special healings of all sorts today.  This can be a day to resolve to be a more Christ-like person, for myself at least.

Special thanks to all who come and share here.  Kindred spirits all.

Your sentiments are pictures are such encouragement.  

I am thinking of our friend Bella, her dear mother, and Bella's upcoming journey to wellness.

On a light note, if you have the chance today, the Hallmark channel is running an all-day Yule Log event.  Against the backdrop of a beautiful fireplace and decorations, traditional Christmas songs are played, with often the cutest kitties and pups playing.  I'm sure Baby Jesus would approve.
