Merry Christmas!

It's a beautiful white Christmas day and I am very blessed to be sitting in my home with family. A lot has happened, good and bad, these past months. I know everything has happened with a purpose and the God is shaping me and molding me according to His plans. I am reminded this morning how much I have to be thankful for. My family and our health, friends, shelter, food, and most importantly knowing that 2,000 years ago our Lord became flesh and sent Jesus to die for our sins. He was born to die. What a marvelous, selfless, incomprehensible act of grace and mercy. I don't have much more to say besides this and that I pray everyone has a wonderful Christmas and spends time thanking the ONE who made it possible for us to be here at all.

I also wanted to share this song that really touched my heart about why we should celebrate Christmas at all. It's called "You're Here" by Francesca Battistelli. Love it!



P.S. - I received my new camera and have been taking a LOT of pictures. Check out my flickr for some new pics.
