A Week before Christmas and all through the house

The Week Before Christmas

A week before Christmas and all through the house;
many creatures are stirring, even the cats.
 They swing on the front door wreath to get a peak in.
And make us laugh in humor to wonder what's next from them.

We cooked Christmas cookies and sprinkled them with sugar
in hopes that our week is sweet and filled with splendor
The Christmas cards are all addressed to special people
and waiting to go to the post office, then off to the church with a steeple.

yes, church on Christmas Eve is a special blessing indeed.
For we remember what the true meaning of Christmas will bring.
Each year we are reminded of true blessings in all forms
That lead us to promises and hope for much more.

We don't necessarily wish for things for they
are really not the meaning of this holiday
We wish for peace and harmony within
our true friends hearts and those who try to win.

For all of us really want to be close to our Maker
and praise Him for what He has done, even if through baking
Baking kind gifts to acquaintances and friends
fills my heart with the true gift of Christmas.

In this late hour, my Abigail is restless
but hopeful for a better 2012 that's blessed
She is a true companion with unconditional love
the kind that God wants us all to spread to the ones we love

If ever you don't believe in Angels oh so near,
read the Christmas story and I can testify they are here.
Some are busy and some are not
But all in all, it's what we got

To protect us, guide us, and send good cheer
At a time, a precious time, of the end of the year
To all my friends both far and near
Remember the angels said not to fear

For baby Jesus was born in a manger to share
all His love for all of us, even those who do not care.
He's forgiving in that way, which makes him more special
For forgiveness was born, to help us with protection.

So as you start the week before Christmas
think of all that God has done for you
And anyone's Christmas is a glad time that is due.
After many trials and tribulations that are promised to endure
It started with one baby who's birthday is pure.

Happy Sunday soon to end and hoping you had a great one!

Do you believe in angels?

An Angel in Our Home

An angel is close to me

he protects me when I sleep

He protects me during the day

When I'm busy at work and play.

To catch a glimpse of an angel

is the most peaceful feeling for the heart;

it's like knowing someone is there

who will never leave me in part.

For some it's hard to believe

in angels that sit at our feet,

on nights alone at home,

or on a lonely walk down a street.

But I know this much is true,

sweet angels fill our home;

We all have a special one

To call our very own.

I hope you feel your angel

and the peace he brings to you

For all of us are not receptive

But we know this much  is true:

Angels are sent from Heaven

To protect us and  feel their love

Don't be afraid of their presence

Because they are there like doves

Flying in when we need them

Showing us their presence.

Sending messages of hope

And promises of Heaven.

inspired by an angel in our home, true story

Some call them ghosts, some call them angels. Some do not believe and some understand fully.

 Paranormal activity is definitely a conversation starter  or ender . ;)

I definitely believe in angels because I've had many times in life of proof when I know one is there. Most of the time there are particular places in our home when this occurs. On a couple of occasions I was not the only witness to it. And still don't know why those special spots in the home are the places.

I know that many feel this is hokey but in my heart I know it's true and sometimes when angels decide to give us a glimpse of them AND a feeling of a surreal peace while present, it's too hard not to believe in angels.

As you go through your day, I hope you can feel the presence of your special angel and feel the peace to the heart it brings.

Do you believe in angels?

Till later,
