Merry Christmas - The Needed Power of Faith

Faith is the bird that feels the light and
sings when the dawn is still dark
FAITH

The greatest gift we can give or are willing to receive is Faith.

Faith holds the secret key to the universe.

Think of all the things we treasure but cannot see: Those untouchable, intangible valuables that matter most and ultimately hold the power of good to shape our world.

Love - We feel it, we know it's real but we cannot touch it, bottle it, sell it, or earn money from it. It's the biggest, richest gift anyone can receive and it comes straight from faith in ourselves that it exists.

Compassion - We all matter. Every single soul on earth matters. No one is greater than another and the gift of compassion shows we have faith in and believe in this untouchable energy.

Hope - Without hope, we cannot have faith. Even though hope in our hearts is not visible to those who walk by us, our body language, our energy and our demeanor have the power to pass along the gift of hope. All of it, unseen, yet felt. One life touches another every single day.

Like butter and eggs, the years blend together. Before we know it we've lived through over 50 or more Christmases. No matter the number we've had, each one blends into the other and over-time, our traditions shape us and our family.

Our children and extended family are the carriers of our roots, and passing along even the smallest sense of tradition in today's crazy-busy world has more value than decades ago.

This year, let us pass along the greatest gift, especially to our children ... the priceless Gift of Faith.

Enjoy this beautiful song by Tim McGraw, Humble & Kind - Song Review can be found here, and most of all....

Merry Christmas xxoo

  1. Christmas is a perfect example of 'one heart touching another'. Let us continue this perfect expression of hope for the future and love for our own and all men everywhere throughout this new year coming. Tim McGraw expresses it well in his song, Barbara. Thanks for sharing it and your statement of Faith with us this Christmas morning.

  4. Love Tim McGraw's song and I really like this review. I will make it part of my daily life and I'm sure it will make a big difference in how I perceive the world and maybe how the world perceives me.

  5. I sincerely hope you had a Christmas filled with love, Barbara! Thank you for these beautiful words and reminders. We often forget our greatest blessings, to be grateful for the faith and love in our lives, and to show compassion when we get so busy celebrating the holidays.
