“And did you know that your cousin Elizabeth conceived a son, old as she is?” Luke 1:36 MSG
And did you know . . . Mary had no idea her cousin Elizabeth was with child until the angel revealed it.
Often, what we don’t know can be more than what we do know.
As we meet with family and friends over the next few weeks may we be mindful that there is much we don’t know. There are stories behind their stories. There can be emotions and conflicts under the hurt. Real truths may rest under the happy, go-lucky smile.
I am blessed to have many friends; however, I don’t know their every care. I don’t know their inward struggles, daily battles or every discouraging thought.
This holiday season may you be mindful there is usually more to any one story. Read your loved ones hearts then determine to be a ray of light, encouragement and joy to those you are around this Christmas season.
And did you know . . . Christ shines in you to bless others this holiday season.

So true to be the light in the darkness that they may only see thru us, as we can guide them in to know Christ as they see him thru us all.
Love ya
Your words are true and said very well. I'm sorry I've not been around, it's been a tough couple of weeks. Blessings to you and your family.
