Luke 2:11-14 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”
Merry Christmas to all you wonderful people!

You are a beautiful woman, inside and out! I’ve loved looking through your blog and following the 12 days of Christmas project. I’m so inspired by what you have been doing! I feel God giving me a heart for orphans and this just deepened that longing to work with them some day. So thank you <3 God has been using you in SO many ways beyond what you could ever hope or imagine.
And thanks for being willing to dream big and put your trust in God…it inspires me to actually achieve something big (which I normally don't do) and make something of my life.
God bless!!!!!

Hello Leslie!
Thanks for leaving such a sweet and encouraging comment! I am so excited for what God is doing in your heart and I pray that it would continue to grow and deepen. When we trust God amazing things happen. I’m excited for you to step out and do something that you feel is radical. 🙂 God bless you! xxx
Absolutely stunning!! I loved the Twelve Days of Christmas and loved seeing your smiling face this Christmas morning!! Merry Christmas to you!
Aww! Thank you Rebekah. 🙂 It has been such a joy to do this 12 days project! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
