The Birth of Jesus


When was Jesus born...what season? In the first picture the shepherds aren't wearing shirts...I wonder why? How would you (or your wife) like to give birth in a stable, barn, animal shelter? Look here to find out more about the artist of the first picture. Near the bottom of that page are some interesting observations from children, don't pass them up.
Look what I found... "Christmas" .... so many great ideas here!
I love the poem at the beginning of this talk....it is so true! As I told my grandson,..."Its not what you buy that makes you happy, it's what's in your heart." Happiness is a feeling...not something you play with. Of course a five year old thinks a bit differently but can be taught the true meaning of Christmas.
On the Christmas site are some great suggestions to make the Season more meaningful...which ideas appeal to you and how can you impliment them?
Another favorite reminder:
"Maybe Christmas doesn't come from the store. Maybe Christmas perhaps means a little bit more"~The Grinch
Soften your heart and let the Spirit of the Chirst-child in.
Merry Christmas!
