"Merry Christmas everyone!
Today is the day where you ought to delight in giving not receiving! We have so much to be grateful for and so many gifts to open/receive. Let's put a new spin on it and see what happens....
This one is for the kids especially!
Before you start snap chatting and instagramming your friends this beautiful morn. Tell/show them what you Gave rather than what you got! Take pictures of those things you gave rather than receivedCapture the joy and happiness of faces on camera today for these are things you will treasure forever. Things are just things, but Loving people and being loved is the best gift of all."
I love how a mother captured the spirit of the holidays and life, and challenged our children to take photo's of how they blessed others. I have often thought of all the enless photo's that we post on those things running through our digestive system, and how temporary and short lived that is. I pray that we don't get caught up in that. Truly, the only thing we can take with us to eternity, after all is what we have done for Christ. Even if we give a glass of water to the thirsty, that is noted in His books. Lately, I have particularly been observant of the many rewards Christ wishes to shower on us. He did say "His reward is with Him". I came accross a video clip of the seven crowns that are available to us, that he is willing and ready to give us. I personally do not wish to miss a single one. Here is a link to Allan Horvath's brief discussion about those crowns.

I am soooo proud of myself, I did not step out the doors on this boxing day this year, 2014. Below is a link to Recovery Canada's Newsletters, and Recovery International, one of whose members came to the town hall meeting this fall. It is a wonderful support group for people suffering from depression.
