Merry Christmas
I took the day off this morning and didn't walk, it is after all Christmas.
It is not snowing but we do have snow on the ground.
Lots of fog still around this morning but by lunch time it was just cloudy.
We didn't exchange gifts but David and Liz came over and
we had a nice day.
I read the Christmas story from the Bible.
Like 2:1-20
Didn't have a big meal but just some finger foods to nibble on
during the day and some Christmas cookies.
A very Merry Christmas to each of you and your families.
Hope your day was happy and blessed.
Thank you all for reading my humble little blog.
A happy and thankful blogger

You can't know the true joy of Christmas
without knowing Jesus.
The Christmas Story
Luke 2:1-20
KJV
1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.
2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

My dad was a pastor and always had a phone. several towns I had to run down the street to tell someone they had a phone call. LOL
Love and the best to you and yours. Hoe your coming year is good.
Because you took the time to write the story, I decided to read it aloud. Only Faith here to listen, but it still felt very good. Thank you for a lovely moment for me and hopefully my dog.
I'm glad you had a good Christmas.
