JESUS IS IN MY PARLOUR
WELCOME TO MY HOME.
Many years ago I watched a movie with a OLD woman in it that would tell the investigating officers that she was having coffee in the kitchen with JESUS when such and such took place. They looked at her as if she had lost her mind. COFFEE IN THE KITCHEN WITH JESUS? Each time they interviewed her, she'd tell them that she was having coffee in the kitchen with Jesus.
Toward the end of the movie you find out that she was sipping coffee at the kitchen table during her prayer time as she prayed to JESUS.
I don't remember the name of the movie, but this part of it has stuck with me.
I mustard up the energy and got my NATIVITY SCENE out of the curio cabinet where it has sat on display for over two years and placed it on what I called my Grandma desk where small pictures of the grandchildren sat. The miniature framed pictures have been moved to the ANTIQUE BOOK CASE with glass inclosed shelves.
The pictures will hopefully not need dusted as often behind glass. Last week we moved the book case from upstairs to the family room. IT WAS A HARD WORK-OUT FOR 2 OLD PEOPLE TO RELOCATE THIS PIECE DOWN A FLIGHT OF STAIRS, but I LOVE this piece back in the family room.
CHRISTMAS DECORATING is slowly happening with the Nativity Scene out on display where BABY JESUS is in the PARLOUR,

DECORATING
I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."
John 3:7
“Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.”
King James Version (KJV)
PSALM 118:17
I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.
By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding
it is established;
through
knowledge
its rooms are filled with rare
and beautiful treasures.
SALVATION
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Acts 4:12 King James Version (KJV)
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
"HOME is a wonderful place to LIVE. No matter the size of the rooms, ones HOME is a place to call ones own. I so LOVE my HOME." ~Deanna~
PSALM 90:12

WISHES
NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna

My husband & I are slowly decorating our home...slowly because the lifting and un-packaging seems to require more strength and back-breaking work than we remembered. But it's getting done !
I love the sentiments in the picture shown.
Let's deck it out! I'm ready to get the trees out and get them up and decorated. Missed that last year due to cancer. (Was thankful that my sweet wife and daughter had a tree up when I came home!)
