~The Christmas Story~

And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2 This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria.3 So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. 4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. 6 So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. 7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. 10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, 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, goodwill toward men!”

Luke 2:1-14

Today's Scripture Quote

'For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.  Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this.'

Isaiah 9:6-7

Today's Scripture Quote...

~Psalm 100~

Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands!

Serve the Lord with gladness;

Come before His presence with singing.

Know that the Lord, He is God;

It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;

We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,

And into His courts with praise.

Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.

For the Lord is good;

His mercy is everlasting,

And His truth endures to all generations.

"All Fired Up"

Well, I just had a pretty exciting afternoon! I was putting some wood in our wood stove, when I dropped the lid lifter into the fire. I tried to get it out as quickly with salad tongs (how else was I supposed

 to get it? XD Also, our lid lifter is old, so it has a wooden handle on it), but before I could, the sweater I was wearing caught on fire! I had forgotten to roll my sleeve up first. I tried to put it out by hitting the flames with my hand, but it quickly went around the back of my neck to my left shoulder. I took off my sweater as fast as I could and hit it against the floor. I wasn't hurt, and my sweater wasn't either (the lid lifter handle is a little black, but it's also ok). It all happened so fast!

It was pretty terrifying! 
That was a pretty dumb thing for me to do.

Thank God I didn't catch the whole house on fire, too!
