This week at our small group we studied a lesson called, 'Why pray when you can worry?'. Its true isn't it? How often do we spend our time and energy worrying (or some other fruitless activity) when we can connect to the Creator of the Universe and have a personal conversation with Him. The Lord has been teaching Terry and I over the past few months some great things about prayer, and how effective it really is. I would love to have you throw up on the blog some of the things God has taught, or been teaching you about prayer. Or perhaps, you have had some incredible answer to prayer recently. Jump on and let's inspire the faith of others by what God is doing in you!

WOW I can hardly believe that it's December already! I guess the Christmas decorations all over my house are giving it away. Terry really gets into decorating for Christmas. I remember the first Christmas after we moved to New Hampshire (1983). I went out and cut a scraggly little Christmas tree from out in the woods near our house. When I brought it home I leaned it on the couch and there it stayed for a couple of weeks until we finally threw it out. Boy have we come a long way since then! Terry really makes the house look beautiful now. Maturity can be a wonderful thing. I hope as you get ready for Christmas this year that Jesus remains the REASON FOR THE SEASON in your life.
