Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas...

I know I've missed some occasions.. Thanksgiving and my birthday...

But I did want to say Merry Christmas!!!

I enjoyed this season more when I was little.. Now with all the distractions and business at work.. I have a hard time getting into the spirit.

I'm really thankful for God's amazing gift-Jesus!! Even if I don't say it as much as I should..

Here an old picture taken around the Thanksgiving/Christmas season..

Grandpa with Liz, Tamara and Me.. :)

Happy Birthday Jesus!

I love you my wonderful friends..

He Maketh No Mistake

My Father's way may twist and turn

My heart may throb and ache

But in my soul, I'm glad because

I know, He maketh no mistake.

My cherished plans may go astray

My Hopes may fade away

But still I'll trust my Lord, to lead

For He doth know the way.

Though night be dark and it my seem

That day will never break

I'll pin my faith, my love in Him

He maketh no mistake

There's so much now, I cannot see

My eye sight is far too dim

But come what may, I'll simply trust

And leave it all to Him

For by and by, the mist shall lift

And plain it all, He'll make

Through all the way, the dark to me

He made not one mistake..
