The Light Of Christmas

~ Christmas, Everyday Living, Faith

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭6‬ ‭(ESV‬‬)

Hundreds of years before Luke described and proclaimed the birth of Jesus, the prophet Isaiah foretold of the event saying:
“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭2‬ (‭ESV‬‬)READ MORE

A Tea Party With The Nutcrackers

~ Christmas, Everyday Living, Tea On Tuesdays, Teatimes

Merry, merry Tuesday and welcome sweet friends. Can you believe it is only 8 sleeps until Christmas? 

“And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭(ESV‬‬)

I am happy that you are here to join my granddaughters and me for a tea party with the nutcrackers. Their little brother and his Da will drop by for a brief visit, but are planning a boys party later that will likely include chocolate milk and tractors. It is warm and cozy inside the Sunshine Cottage and I am serving up plenty of sweet treats…for girls and boys! READ MORE

Simple + Southern Sunday No. 527

“All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭1‬:‭22‬-‭23‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I know what calendars indicate, but all of December is a winter month as far as I’m concerned. I started out for a walk on a wintry day last week and packed the drone with me. I decided to stop and fly so I could get a look at an area beyond where my time would allow me to hike. I was not able to fly far or high because of wind warnings I kept getting for the drone. We will show a bit more of “Christmas On The Coosa” (shown in SSS 526) in a moment, but this is the way Christmas on the Coosa looks at our house!READ MORE
