Horses...
| Friends... |
| Peace |
| Freedom... |
| A mother runs to her foal as the breeze sweeps across the field. |
| A black stallion surrounded by a herd; it raises it's head to check for danger always ready to worn the herd. |
| A free stallion races across a beach. |
| A horse races into action... |
| King of the West |

Christmas - Easter - Now...
Jesus Christ was born in a manger on Christmas day...
Matthew 1:18-25 NKJV:
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: 23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”
24 Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife, 25 and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus.
Mary did you know? - If it doesn't play click on this link before continuing on. -
It was not a silent night. Although I love the song "Silent Night" it's not true. That night was anything but silent. There was most likely city noises, animal noises and so much more...
Point of Grace - Labor of Love -
People will doubt, there are so many "what ifs." But with Jesus you just know, some how. Some kind of peace settles in your heart...
Nicole Nordeman - What if -
"17 And He, bearing His cross, went out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha, 18 where they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center. 19 Now Pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross. And the writing was:
21 Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘He said, “I am the King of the Jews.”’”
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece. 24 They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:
Matthew 1:18-25 NKJV:
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”

John 19:17-24:
JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 Then many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.
“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
Therefore the soldiers did these things."
Nicole Nordeman - Why - This one has a few bloody pictures, but the song is amazing!
John 19:28-30:
"28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I thirst!” 29 Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth. 30 So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit."
Third Day - Thief -
Luke 24:22-23:
"22 Yes, and certain women of our company, who arrived at the tomb early, astonished us. 23 When they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive."
He's alive -
Will we be asleep? Will we be left behind? If we had lived back then would we have believed? Many of the believers were people who were cast out, not people who had a good back ground. I'm not saying this with the thought that because we have a good back round, because we have good parents, that we wouldn't have believed. It's just something to think about...

Please give me FEET that will walk the path that you set before me.
Lord give me a BODY that is ready to be your TEMPLE. Ready to do your WILL, and ready to do your WORK.
I ask that you will show me the people you want me to SEE, so that I can LISTEN, and I ask for the WORDS to speak. I ask that you will help me give COMFORT, and also the STRENGTH to do you work. Please help me walk on the PATH that you are LEADING me on. Lord I want my body to be your TEMPLE."

QS of the Week 2/12/12
Christmas isn't just about the gifts, or the lights, or even the music. It's about hope, joy, love, light.
Hope: If Jesus hadn't been born, there would be no such thing as Christians.
Joy: I wish I could have been there to see the face of Mary.
Love: He was born, so he could die! For us...
Light: And the star shown bright.
Have a Merry, Merry Chrstimas!

Verse of the Week 2/12/12
NKJV:
Luke 1:26:38:
26 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!”
29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was. 30 Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Jesus. 32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. 33 And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end.”
34 Then Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I do not know a man?”
35 And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God. 36 Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren. 37 For with God nothing will be impossible.”
38 Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

Merry Christmas!
I love Chirstmas. It's my favorite time of the year! All the lights, the Christmas tree, the music!
There's just something about Christmas music. I don't know...Maybe it's all the bells, or the jolly songs. I just love it!
I hope you all have a wonderful Chrstimas...
~It's hard to imagine that this is my last "snowy" Chistmas for the next few years.

48 For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;
For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.
49 For He who is mighty has done great things for me,
And holy is His name.
50 And His mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation.
51 He has shown strength with His arm;
He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52 He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
And exalted the lowly.
53 He has filled the hungry with good things,
And the rich He has sent away empty.
54 He has helped His servant Israel,
In remembrance of His mercy,
55 As He spoke to our fathers,
To Abraham and to his seed forever.”
