As we approach the Christmas season, I pray that each of you find the opportunity to spend special time with those nearest and dearest to you.

Christmas time is a time of giving. We give out of love and gratitude, not just because we feel compelled to.

No!

We give because we were given the greatest gift of all…a Savior!

Straight from the hands of our loving God. Jesus was sent to be the perfect fulfillment for our greatest need – salvation from the chains of sin and a pathway to redemption. Through Him, we can have an intimate relationship with God.

It is my deepest prayer that you enter this Christmas season with that true knowledge in your heart. Sharing this with you is the greatest gift I can offer because it is the greatest gift I have ever received.

Now that Christmas week is upon us, I’ll be hying off for the remainder of the month to enjoy a relaxing vacation with my family and friends. So I won’t see you fine folks again until the new year. But before I go, I’d like to leave you with a little Christmas treat to make your holidays extra sweet.

Don’t these look tasty? Head on over to Her View from Home and discover how to make Grandma’s Mashed Potato Doughnuts. These delectable delights, coated in snowy powdered sugar are sure to make your Christmas extra sweet. They go great with a steamy cup of hot cocoa!

From my family to yours…

Merry Christmas!
