Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
The sleeping Child you're holding is the Great, I Am.
Yesterday we had a wonderful Choir concert by the Area Homeschool Choir. It was beautiful. One special song always makes me ponder on the wonder of it all.

The song gets me.... with the profoundness of it every time I
hear it....makes me wonder what is in my life,
my hands ,
right now,
right where I am,
that I do not even know the magnitude of it all.
There was only one Mary that God chose to bestow this favor
upon yet it is the One true God that chooses to dwell with us and work in our lives in
amazing ways, through His son,Jesus. These ways sometimes include struggle and
circumstances that we cannot explain, or control, but we can ponder, as did Mary, and we
can say "Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word". I do not
believe this young girl understood the magnitude of it all at that moment in
time.....she did not know that she one day would watch the child she bore, her redeemer
also, bare the sins of the whole world. I am thinking this is where you are too, as you face
difficult or confusing, or even dreams being unfolded.....do we know........we may not know
for now or for awhile. Yet, on the other hand our Heavenly Father may give us a glimpse.
Either way faithfulness to Him will always bring a bigger picture than what we know! As you
rest in Him this season....may your heart be filled with the peace and comfort of His love.
The Wonder of it all!

| Sunset.....by God, viewed and taken in by Jon! |
Yesterday, as I tramped outside in the cold evening to
capture a sunset that my youngest
son had spotted. " Come on Mom, come see the sunset."
He invited me in to what he saw...
and....I pondered these very things.
Do I know how this VERY ( I mean very ) small act of sacrifice/kindness, after a long day,
will effect a young child who sees the joy in the world around him.
A joy he wants to share with me. My heart's desire is to remember this............even in the
business of life, may I remember that I do not know how God is choosing
to impact His people through a small choice of surrender in the lives of His children. I am
still pondering..........God is good!
