"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

For Christmas....

... all I want is....

Something that is impossible and very unlikely that I'll get.... but, it is truly what my heart desires for Christmas this year...

Yet, I'm reminded that "Nothing is Impossible for God"

One thing I do know is that HE has given me the PEACE that I've so longed for.... HE has given me JOY this season like I haven't experienced in a while..... HE has taught me what HIS LOVE truly is, a LOVE that HE has for us, even when it is not returned. HE has allowed me to question and struggle with HIM this year.... HE has led me to PEACE again, after Being Still, and Knowing HE is GOD..... HE has led me blindly, I still don't understand why HE brought me here to Buffalo, but it sure has been an adventure. HE has given me opportunities and divine appointments to truly see HIS LOVE.... HE has taught me so much.... AND, HE continues to remind me that HE speaks in HIS Perfect Timing.....

I'm still waiting with hope, that Hope that is in HIM.....

I'm glad HE is taking me to celebrate Christmas back home in Michigan with family this year. I haven't been home in 12 or so years.....

So what I want for Christmas may be something that is impossible and very unlikely that I'll get.... but, I'm content and at peace whether it comes or not because I am truly Blessed....

And, though Santa can't bring me what my heart desires.... GOD has already given me the most important desire of my heart.... and the other, Well "NOthing is impossible for GOD"!!!!
