    Micah 5:  He will stand tall in his shepherd-rule by God's strength, centered in the majesty of God-Revealed. And the people will have a good and safe home, for the whole world will hold him in respect – Peacemaker of the world!

    Hebrews 10:  When he said, "You don't want sacrifices and offerings," he was referring to practices according to the old plan.   When he added, "I'm here to do it your way," he set aside the first in order to enact the new plan –

    Luke 1:   When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby in her womb leaped. She was filled with the Holy Spirit,  and sang out exuberantly, You're so blessed among women, and the babe in your womb, also blessed!

    Rosemary's Blessing:

     

    A Christmas Prayer

     

    Loving Father, help us to remember the birth
    of Jesus, that we may share in the song of the angels,
    the gladness of the shepherds,
    and the worship of the wise men.

    Close the door of hate and
    open the door of love all over the world.

    Let kindness come with every gift and
    good desires with every greeting.

    Deliver us from evil by the blessing
    which Christ brings, and teach us to
    be merry with clear hearts.

    May the Christmas morning make us happy
    to be Thy children, and the Christmas evening
    bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts,
    forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake.

    Amen!

    Nehemiah 8:  Then Ezra praised God, the great God, and all the people responded, "Oh Yes! Yes!" with hands raised high. And then they fell to their knees in worship of God, their faces to the ground.

    1 Corinthians 12:  You are Christ's body – that's who you are! You must never forget this. Only as you accept your part of that body does your "part" mean anything.

    John 2:  God's Spirit is on me; he's chosen me to preach the Message of good news to the poor, Sent me to announce pardon to prisoners and recovery of sight to the blind, To set the burdened and battered free,  to announce, "This is God's year to act!"

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

    Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

    Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

    Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

    You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.
