Hebrews 11:  So it was that there came forth from one man, himself as good as dead, descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

Luke 2:  When the day of circumcision arrived, the child was named Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived.  Then when the days stipulated for purification were complete, they took him up to Jerusalem to offer him to God.

    Sorry Folks. This is late and there are no pictures, but the writer is sick.

     

    Isaiah 40:  Like a shepherd he feeds his flock; in his arms he gathers the lambs, carrying them in his bosom, and leading the ewes with care.

    2 Peter 3:  But according to his promise we await new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

    Mark 1:  Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he will prepare your way.  A voice of one crying out in the desert: "Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths."

    We will be helping the seniors from the Wellness Center for Older Adults in Plano. If you’re interested in “sponsoring” someone, please text Lynda Fleming at (972) 754-0823, and she’ll let you know what is on their wish list. The Wellness Center could also use gift cards for fast food places, restaurants like Chili’s and Texas Roadhouse which is near their facility or Walmart and Visa gift cards – any amount is fine. If you just want to give a monetary donation, Lynda will be happy to be your personal shopper. Thanks so much for your support!

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    Dust If You Must

    By Rose Milligan

    Dust if you must, but wouldn’t it be better

    To paint a picture, or write a letter,

    Bake a cake, or plant a seed,

    Ponder the difference between want and need?

     

    Dust if you must, but there’s not much time,

    With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;

    Music to hear, and books to read;

    Friends to cherish and life to lead.

     

    Dust if you must, but the world’s out there,

    With the sun in your eyes and the wind in your hair,

    A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,

    This day will not come around again.

     

    Dust if you must, but bear in mind,

    Old age will come and it’s not kind,

    And when you go(and go you must),

    You yourself, will make more dust.
