Robin's Thanksgiving Prayer

Have you felt broken into a million little little pieces? Jesus also felt that way nailed to a cross as a sacriface for our sins. He helps us put back the pieces. Sometimes do younhurt so bad that you don't want ot get out of bed? When Jesus said"It's finished," He gave us a place to lay our burdens. ON HIM.

Did you ever have dreams and tried to make them go your own way but they didn't work out the way you wanted them to? Remember that His dreams are bigger and better than ours and beyond our imagination. Have you eveer done something and just seem to forget? Hitting walls and getting scars only make you who you are. No one is perfect except JESUS. Have you asked God to take away something in you and it hasn't happened? Well, maybe it's not up to Him to take away but for you to give up.to Him.

Have you run into obstacles you thought stood in your way? Think of them as opportunities for God to work through you. As a child, did you ever wonder if God was big or small? He's both. He's so big that the heavens and earth can't contain Him but yet so small that He can live inside our hearts.

My Thanksgiving prayer is that Jesus lives in each and everyone of us because He has soo much LOVE to give and it's FREE!!!!!! His hand is always reaching out to us. All we need to do is to take hold. Ask Him into your life today. That is the best gift of ALL.

"Where did baby Jesus go?"

Where Did Baby Jesus Go?"

As a child when christmas neared,
Everyone full of holiday cheer.
Lights so beautiful and so bright,
It was such a wonderful sight.
Inside the church the manger exalted,
The true meaning of christmas never faltered.
Also a tree standing oh so tall,
A star on top above it all.
Old photos now look stranger,
Because the focus really was the manger.
I didn't see the beauty shift,
to the tree with all the gifts.
Looking back where He was long ago,
Asking "Where did baby Jesus go?"
Walking all around trying to find,
Thinking He got left behind.
Found Him on a table oh so small,
I had walked passed Him after all.
Jesus whispers"You say it's about me,
all I see is the tree, How could you do this to me?"
With that baby held the burden,
of the world uncertain.
The true meaning of the season,
needs to come back with the reason.
Look around do you find it so?
Do you have to ask "Where did baby Jesus go
