Merry Christmas to you all from our family and our unreal year 2013!!!
I bow in awe at the manger, but lift all my hope in the cross and His resurrection.

Did I Pick Those Words?
I glanced back at my post for January of 2013. ( http://janettessage.blogspot.com/2013/01/reflections-in-rear-view-mirror.html ) I was stunned. Did I really pick those words for the new year and that accessory? I sure did! God must have been smiling when He saw me type out the words - Transition and Joy, with shoes for my accessory. My mind went off with how those words were literally walked out in 2013. I will be back to ponder the manifestations of those words, while looking forward to the word God has already given me for 2014. After last year, I know I will not be able to comprehend how my new word will play out in 2014. So this week I put away all my business supplies, stop and grab my cooking supplies, to go enjoy making cookies with Benjamin. This Christmas season, with all my jobs, has been very short and I am determined to not short change my last born child.

"I bow in awe at the manger, but lift all my hope in the cross and His resurrection."
Amen and Amen!
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Wonderful family photo! Everyone looks so very happy, as it should be.
When I think of the journey you have been on and where the Lord has brought you and your family, the only word that comes to mind is AMAZING. Truly if we cling to Him and His promises He will see us through.
Merry, Merry Christmas to you all!
Love you!
Beautiful family and look at the three precious little ones! Have a blessed Christmas!
Look at you with your arms full of grand babies! The Lord is soo good. Wishing you and yours a very blessed and merry Christmas! May this coming year bring joy, peace, and an even closer walk with Him! HUGS

Merry Christmas! That picture kind of says it all (well, not "all", I'm sure).
I'm busy listing 65 blessings of the past year - which I do each birthday - one to match each year.....
THEN I'll be selecting a "word" for 2014. I'll be interested to know what yours is :)
What a lovely, lovely family Janette. You are such an inspiration and I pray God's richest blessings on you during 2014. Hugs!
Looking forward to reading about our One word choice for 2014!
You certainly picked those words well, didn't you? You had your share of transitions and ...joy. I hope you had a blessed Christmas Janette!
Love you,
Debbie
I love, love your family photo. That is just so precious. I love how your arms are just so full.
It is funny the words we think we know will be about and the Lord knows so much better.
I hope you have time to catch your breath in 2014
Hi Janette - Just look at all your blessings from 2013! Your family is growing - talk about TRANSITION! What a journey He has led you through. May God bless you richly in 2014! Hugs - Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
