This is one of my all times favorite Christmas Songs!! This group does a good job on this song.  it makes me cry every time i hear it. We had a Evangelist Bro Dave McCracken Preached Sunday. His sermons was around Mary. its was amazing it made me think of how Mary was feeling when she found out she would be giving birth to the son of God. and being a virgin others would have talked about her but she knew God chosen her.

One of my Favorite songs! They did amazing job please watch!

The meaning of the Christmas Tree? Here's what i found out about the Christmas tree. The evergreen tree was an ancient symbol of life in the midst of winter. Romans decorated their houses with evergreen branches during the New Year, and ancient inhabitants of northern Europe cut evergreen trees and planted them in boxes inside their houses in wintertime. Many early Christians were hostile to such practices. The second-century theologian Tertullian condemned those Christians who celebrated the winter festivals, or decorated their houses with laurel boughs in honor of the emperor: "Let them over whom the fires of hell are imminent, affix to their posts, laurels doomed presently to burn: to them the testimonies of darkness and the omens of their penalties are suitable.  You  are a light of the world, and a tree ever green. If you have renounced temples, make not your own gate a temple." But by the early Middle Ages, the legend had grown that when Christ was born i...

I got this from a blog so all the credit goes to it.   http://www.thebensonstreet.com/2012/12/07/introduction-12-days-of-christmas-stories/12daysbutton/ A story a found that is a good story Please read!!! The Three Trees Author Unknown Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first tree said, “Someday I hope to be a treasure chest. I could be filled with gold, silver and precious gems. I could be decorated with intricate carving and everyone would see beauty.” Then the second tree said, “Someday I will be a mighty ship. I will take kings and queens across the waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strength of my hull.” Finally, the third tree said, “I want to grow to be the tallest and straightest tree in the forest. People will see me on top of the hill and look up to my branches and think of the heavens and God and how close to them I a...

Sorry that I’m late writing my 12 days of Christmas. But I couldn’t think of anything. so I started to think about what this season is all about. My Pastor preached about this one Sunday. The greatest gift that God has given us besides his son is the gift of salvation. That Jesus Christ is God in a man form. He came down to become a man to know what man goes through so that he could die on the cross to save us from our sin. My pastor preached this Sunday night. That hearing about salvation doesn’t touch us like it did when we first got saved. We don’t get over whelmed. I know I have sometimes, but what God did for me that I would have a home in heaven. So if you are saved and reading this. Thank the lord for your salvation. That God sent his son so we could have a home in heaven and everlasting life. If you’re reading this and you are not saved message me and I will show you how you can get saved. This time of year we should be thankful for what the lord had given us. One of ...

Sorry i haven't been blogging lately. been kinda busy lately. I'm going to try to do a 12 days of Christmas on my blog I'm going to think of what to do and then i will try to do it! My dad and mom and I are watching The polar Express right now. It still reminds me that how when i was a little kid that i would have waited for Santa to come wait up all night for him. and fall asleep then wake up to find out that he did come and that he got me what i wanted for Christmas. i still found myself doing that on Christmas Eve. I know the real meaning of Christmas is the birth of Christ and the gift of salvation he gave to us if we only except the gift.  But i found myself young at heart still waiting for Santa!! i know I'm weird but that's me.   So, keep up so when i think of a 12 days of Christmas theme that you will be in the know!!! Have a good night! Theresa
