christmas shopping......

is finally done.

Gifts are wrapped, but without bows.

Maybe

I'll do that tonight or

Maybe I will just relax and read

and give the gifts without bows.

If you know me well

you know

"I would never give a gift without a bow!"

Pictured above is

"The French Market"

my most favorite store in Savannah.

What really intrigues me

about this store is the

architecture,

both inside and out.

I could stay all day

and just look

at all of the wonderful things

they have on display.

The birth of Jesus

"Now is come the time when

God's kindness and good will towards guilty man

is to fully be made known. 

His power was seen in creation,

His justice was seen in the flood. 

But His mercy

remained to be fully revealed by the appearing and atonement of Jesus."

JC Ryle

Expository Thoughts

Oh the depths of the mercy of our God

that He would look upon us,

vile sinners that we are,

and shower us with mercy and forgiveness

by sending

His Son Jesus Christ into this world. 

 A love like this I cannot comprehend. 

I can only by faith accept it

and be humbled before the God who made and sustains me. 

I praise His holy name tonight.
