Whie we had steady rain yesterday and last night, it remained above freezing, and is in the 50s by day.

We had none of the earlier ice storm that went well above us, and were so glad we 10 years ago moved here from North Carolina.
Our very beautiful woods (hardwoods) and house there were 20 miles from Greensboro and medical help, and we realized our physical limitations would make it impossible to chop wood, or even carry it into the house to use in the fireplace for warmth, should the power be off. There were numerous times when ice and/or snow made driving treacherous, and we no longer have to shovel our way out to civilization.
The nearest loaf of bread was 6 1/2 miles away...

God directed us first to a beautiful house by the lake here to rest in Him for 2 1/2 years - and then when it was becoming beyond me to maintain the wonderful but sloping yard down to it, He led us to this house near everything - a corner lot with lots of trees, and level ground.

He knows our needs and meets them when we let go of the reins and willingly follow Him day by day.

In light of the fact some churches will not have services this Christmas Sunday, "interfering" with morning opening of gifts, Santa or midday dinners, mine here has the following:

** Christmas Eve Carol & Candlelight Service Saturday at 6 p.m. **
** Joint Christmas Worship Service at 10:30 a.m. **
(instead of Contemporary one at 8:30 and Conventional One at 11)

God rightly comes first.....
