My Dream Journal

I’ve never had the chance to share about the beautiful gift that my husband gave to me for our 3rd Wedding Anniversary several weeks ago – a unique leather journal. He had done some research about traditional gifts to give on this specific anniversary year, and something leather was recommended. So leather is what he chose.

I call the book my “Dream Journal.” The soft cover and the vintage gold key clasp inspire me, and the special binder pages give me a wonderful place to write down my thoughts and ideas. So far I’ve penned poems, prayers, and other musings that were on my heart. It really has been a lovely gift.

So a special thank you goes to my husband, Roy, for this sweet gift. It will continue to remind me of him and his love each time I use it. ❤

In Awe of Your Wonders

Those who live at the ends of the earth

stand in awe of Your wonders.

From where the sun rises to where it sets,

You inspire shouts of joy.

~ Psalm 65:8

This is Christmas

Do you find it hard to sleep tonight
Resting by the Christmas lights
Could there be something you forgot
Beyond the bows and mistletoe
The tree with presents wrapped below
There’s more to this that you had ever thought

Have we lost the reason that we celebrate each year
What is Christmas
If there never was a Savior wrapped in a manger
What is Christmas without Christ

Remember how the story goes
God’s gift was wrapped in swaddling clothes
Beneath a star one great and holy night
The shepherds heard the angels sing
The wise men brought an offering
Peace on Earth began in Bethlehem
Have we lost the reason that we celebrate each year

What is Christmas
If there never was a Savior wrapped in a manger
What is Christmas if the angels never sang
Glory to the newborn King
What is Christmas without Christ
That we know

Gloria in excelsis deo

What is Christmas
if there never was a Savior wrapped in a manger [Joy to the world]
What is Christmas without Christ
This is Christmas
It’s all about the Savior wrapped in the manger [Joy to the world]
This is Christmas
Because of Jesus Christ
This is Christmas
Because of Christ
