Luke
2:13-14
13 And
suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God
and saying:
14 “Glory to
God in the highest,
And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”
In this
passage, a multitude of angels appears to shepherds, proclaiming the birth of
Jesus. They declare, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace,
goodwill toward men." The angels emphasize God's greatness and
majesty, celebrating the significance of Christ's birth. It's a message that
highlights the promise of peace and goodwill, suggesting reconciliation between
God and humanity through Jesus. The proclamation is inclusive, indicating that
the good news is for all people, not just a select few. These two short verses encapsulate
the essence of the Christmas story, focusing on hope, joy, and the fulfillment
of God's promises
It's
Tuesday and time for
Tuesday
Four hosted by Annie!
Holiday Express
Welcome
Friends.. to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.
The
holidays are coming fast! They are loaded onto the Christmas
Express train and there is no stopping them now.
Are
you ready for them this year?
I'm as ready as I'm going to be!
1.
Is your tree up? How tall is it?
what color lights?
Are there
lights in the window? On the door?
The tree
has been up since Thanksgiving. It’s a small one, packed with lights—just the
right size for me and Mr. D. I used to cover the windows and doors with lights
too, but not anymore.
2.
Got a menu for Christmas Eve and Day?
My daughter is hosting this year and Hank is cooking turkey breast and pork tenderloins on the grill, yummy. The rest of us are bringing the sides and desserts.
3. Who is
coming for Christmas or who will you visit?
Probably no one since we'll be at our daughters.
4.
What is your favorite Christmas memory?
My favorite Christmas isn’t a single moment; it’s a collection of years filled with memories as our children grew up. Then the grandchildren arrived, and the season became even more wonderful. Christmas is still wonderful for us, and we continue to make new memories every year. But now, in our senior years, we’ve happily stepped back and let the younger generation take the lead.
Click HERE to join in the fun!
Blessings to All
Until Next Time




Dear Mary, your Christmas dinner sounds delicious! I love both turkey and pork tenderloin! Your Christmas decorations are gorgeous!

DeleteLovely Scripture today. I love the Christmas story and thank the Lord for His great mercies to us.
ReplyDeleteAlso like your ceramic Christmas. I have the same tree and it is perfect for hubby and me:)
This is the first year for the ceramic tree, so was quick and easy, and big of enough for me and Mr D. Merry Christmas.
DeleteThis is the first year I feel totally relaxed about what is ... AND what isn't. I want to bask in the little moments and give thanks for simple pleasures.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, me too!!
DeleteOur Christmas is very laid back. No little kids around any more.

We'll have a laid back Christmas too, after our party on the 21st, and thankfully our daughter is hosting!!!!
