   Thanks Deb, for your message… passion… insights… and for inspiring me this dreary Monday morning as I contemplate my mounting ‘to-do’ list. You’ve helped me to re-prioritize the list… because what really matters is not what I do, but how I proclaim the hope, peace, joy and love of the Christ that is within, and around… How I join the angel chorus… share the shepherds awe… gaze at the Holy Child with wonder… and then take all of these experiences and extend the invitation to others to do the same? I think this is what matters… and what I will try ‘to-do’ this week… for the glory of God!

   With a thankful heart,
   Your Sister in Christ,
   Sue

   Your message encouraged me. We need to rely
   on Christ for strength & need to proclaim Christ as
   the answer. The commercialisation of christmas seems
   to get more prevalent year by year, obscuring the “Reason
   for the Season” – celebrating Christ.
