SONG FOR 3rd ADVENT



Rejoice in the Lord always. I shall say it again: 
rejoice!
Your kindness should be known to all. 
The Lord is near. 
Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, 
by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, 
make your requests known to God. 
Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding 
will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. 
Phil. 4:4-7

In a way, it's sad to know that so many across this globe of ours only feel the joy and wonderment of our lives just this time of year. I remember one Christmas season, our little son, Erik - now a full grown adult - said of the season, "Why just one day a year? It should be EVERY day!" With that I'll leave you and let you know I enjoyed the song and Bible verse.

Truly a song for every day. The waiting is almost over and Joy will fill our hearts again at the celebration of the birth of Jesus.

It just isn't Christmas unless we sing "Joy to the World" . . . which we did Sunday after lighting the Candle of Joy!

May you have a joyous Christmas!!

That is one of my favorite timeless songs and I love your version..it's upbeat and peppy.
I have not had my third candle lit yet, but it's in my heart.
I love it that you share the Advent Story.

Joy was my bite of the fruit of the spirit for yesterday. The Joy came with Peace today. You are right, the fruit of the spirit is singular. It's nice to take a bite a day though. Again, Love the Advent because we didn't celebrate it when I was a child. Thanks for sharing the verse and "Joy To The World."

My Love! Hans Peter Ristau  November 24, 1939 - May 21, 2013 EULOGY presented by his son Dr. Kenneth Andrew Ristau  Hans Peter Ristau was born to Karl and Martha Ristau on November 24th, 1939, in Berlin, Germany, only two and half months after the start of the War.

Klaus, Renate and Peter at their last visit So glad Renate was able to visit for a few weeks before Peter died.  Karl immigrated to Canada in 1950, settling in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Martha and the children followed later.

Welcome all BATW visitors !! Debbie does a wonderful job taking us to fascinating places around the world! Thank you so much! So, grab a hot chocolate, or that second cup and enjoy the visit. Here are some facts about the Province of Alberta, part of western Canada, where we've lived for 37 years! Thanks to Doris for this lovely winter scene! Didn't have my own! It's winter here now but we do get the four seasons and they are beautiful. Love this photo - thanks Evi! The days are getting longer and soon we will have spring again! The trees should have green leaves by Mother's Day! Alberta's license plates read, WILD ROSE COUNTRY. Click on the rose to read more about it! Alberta had it's centennial celebrations in September '05! We're still quite young! If a 21 year old had ten bucks to his name in 1905 he could buy 64 hectares - over 150 acres. Of course it had stipulations, but wouldn't that be fantastic nowadays. I'd even pay $1000.00, oh ...
