* I wake early is each morning excited to study, but the house is cold.

I
pile on several layers of warm clothing then go into the art
room,
plug in my trusty heater and all begins to warm. I watch the sky turn from dark to dawn. Slowly everything warms. This gift of
time to study is such a blessing to me. I am thankful today for the warmth of the sun, and the Son.
* I went to Mom's house yesterday morning and she looked so tired and sick. Wish I could trade her places for a time. She wouldn't come up. I sure hope I can get her to Arizona with us! She has to come.
* I am looking forward for Monday night when we have our
Bowden Family Christmas Dinner up here. Brent and
Meem are coming.
* I sat in the car with Matt yesterday. It was a relief. I always hold my breath.Wish he would come up more.
* "But the
anointing which ye have received of him
abideth in you. . . . and ye shall abide
in him." 1 John 2:27
