Peace Knocking
It’s true that Christmas is not about reindeer, but hearing hooves on our rooftop invokes a sense of anticipation and imagination! Perhaps what we are hearing is the spirit of Christmas knocking at our heart, offering us the gift of peace! All we have to do is open it….first our heart….then the gift!

Kept Shining Still
“Whatever else be lost among the years, let us keep Christmas still a shining thing; whatever doubts assail us, or what fears, let us hold close one day, remembering its poignant meaning for the hearts of men. Let us get back our childlike faith again.”~Grace Noll Crowell

Be the Setting for Their Jewel
“Be the setting that holds another person up to the light like a precious jewel, letting every facet of who they are sparkle and shine revealing all the colors within their heart…”

To Make A Prairie
“To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.”
