As Christmas draws near I attempt to prepare my home, the food, the gifts, etc. But do we prepare ourselves?
I can hardly wait to see the babies light up with smiles and squeals when they finally get to open gifts, when they finally get to see some of the new things we have for them, are allowed to eat as many sweets as they want and finally get to put baby Jesus in the manger.

Oh how this season always makes me miss my friends and family down in Texas. It starts in November, which is National Adoption Month, when my girlfriends Morgan and Eugenie come to mind so often and their stories of how the Lord blessed them and their husbands so richly through adoption.
So I asked Morgan, who is the mother of two beautiful girls, if I could share this short exhortation she wrote last year.

“For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age”
“looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.” Titus 2:11-14
And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Rev 22:17

A Thanksgiving treat for you all!
I knew we had wild turkeys in town, but hadn’t seen one this year until the other day! This one was hanging out next door at the church.
He eventually made his way over to our backyard! He was on our porch! Eeek! Or should I say Gobble Gobble Y’all!
