Give Thanks Friday

It's the week before Christmas and this couldn't be a better topic we could close on. The past couple of weeks have been a sad time for America and our hearts and prayers go out to everyone who is grieving. For some reason, this holiday season has felt different for me. Our economy has left millions unemployed, Washington couldn't be any less hopeful, and we've seen a lot of evil lately. The one thing we can count on is Jesus, the greatest gift this world has ever seen. With him, nothing is forgotten and he has and always will have the whole world in his hands. I hope you rest in knowing that during the Holiday. Merry Christmas everyone!

My favorite Christmas decoration from my future sister-in-law and the Diptyque candle I turned into a vase for my holly.
The chandelier draped in pearls at Henri Bendel in NYC.
My treasured fiance who came over at 10 p.m. to help me clean and get ready to host small group. I have to brag on him because he never will ;)
My new art I found at a street vendor. It's framed in a window from a house on Capitol Hill.
The acrostic poem I received from my future niece. Literally brought me to tears. She's so sweet and always touches my heart when I see her.


 "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

-John 16:33
