The Greatest Gift

Open
Ann Voskamp, a "gifted" writer, has penned the most splendid book that I could ever imagine for the Christmas Advent Season.....will it be used as the Pilgrim Progress of our Day?....we think so.
Ann  has traveled the road to Bethlehem through her own pain and then rejoicing..
 She gave us our first Advent Journey and we will never be the same; thanks to her and God. I wanted to share her book...you can find it on Amazon...give it to yourself or someone you love as a belated Christmas Gift, but then God is never late; He is always on Time....He is Time.....He is the Birth on the rags in the Manger....the blood on the "filthy rags" that we cannot atone ourselves....as Ann so well puts it.....
My parents use to read Readers' Digest.....may I suggest that we Digest by Reading Gods' Word and find people like Ann to also read.....
"Grace is weightless".....just ask the Angels that Day in Bethlehem.....
We can live in that weightless place....His Sovereign Will...Oh,....Amazing Grace!!.....

Quilted Blessings!!  Have a Blessed Day....  Karen
