Special Message: The Cross!

For those who have asked.....

The cross is hanging on the main tree in front of the house. Brother G put it up this afternoon.

I can still remember when he made it with his own hands at daddy's request all those years ago now.

If you drive by.... please know you are welcome to stop and visit with us. The porch light will be on if we're here.

With all the talk about Christmas gifts... may we not forget that had Jesus not died on the cross and rose again on the 3rd day defeating death.... He would have been merely another babe...

Thank You Lord for the message of the Cross especially as we celebrate Christ's birth.

No one can ever take Christ out of Christmas!

Will you help others see Him in it through serving them?

Two items go on our tree every year...we have a cross front and center...to remind all of us that Christmas is only the beginning, not the end.

We also have a 12 inch spike given to us years ago. The spike is hidden. It is in back of the tree. The spike reminds Tonya and I that Jesus died for us, shed His blood for our sins, and suffered so that we might live.

Truly there is no need to keep Christ in Christmas because He is always there and will never leave. Great thoughts Camey!
