For Unto You Is Born This Day...
A Savior...Christ The Lord

Merry CHRISTmas!!

LUKE 2:1-20
King James Version (KJV)

1..And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

2..(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3..And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4..And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5..To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6..And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7..And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8..And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9..And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10..And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11..For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

12..And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

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, good will toward men.

15..And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

16..And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17..And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18..And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19..But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

20..And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

Good evening, Kathy!

*HUGS*

I hope you had a Happy Christmas! We just got back from the in-laws - the annual Christmas Night Dessert, cousins' gift exchange and soiree.

It has finally cooled off here - we're just above freezing now. I'm taking off tomorrow to do fence work and hardscape in the back garden.


"Nolaig Shona Dhuit!"
Merry Christmas To
You And Yours!

Are you stuffed? *HUGS*

It's been almost 40 here most of the day and really windy, and my computer and internet have been as slow as molasses most of the day. It's driving me crazy. I get tomorrow off as well.

Merry Christmas Kathy!

Just got back from playing cards; ever hear of the game 10, 9, 8? It's a variation of spades and hearts but more fun :-)

Hanging out here with sis and BIL tomorrow too and more cards in store.

Hope your Christmas was full of cheer, Kathy. Quiet at the farm, but a good day.

Kitties all inside. Wilbur's heat lamp is turned on to keep him warm and he has plenty of straw to snuggle in. Took this shot last winter when I was stomping around getting pix of the one good snowfall we had. He has the same setup now.

Nice and quiet here as well. Internet issues all day, so I will do some catching up later today. Just woke up from an unexpected nap. Maybe sleeping in my bed would be a better deal. LOL!!

Lucky Wilbur...safe and warm.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Bummer you had internet issues. Been smooth as silk with ours all day and night. But we’ve had more than our fair share over the years with our old ISP. It was nice to finally get an alternative in this area and we’ve been happy with the service so far.
Hope yours straightens up by the time you wake up.

Yes, bed would probably be a much better deal. LOL! If a naps sneaks up on you like that, it’s probably time for it.
This lil vampire is heading off to the bat cave herself. Pillow and blankie are calling my name. hee!
