December 25 - Christmas Day
December 25, 2024
We hope your Christmas was filled with all the blessings of Advent:
Hope, Peace, Joy & Love
and
We wish you a New Year filled with Shalom!
Shalom is a Hebrew expression that is perhaps my favorite word and implies a deep sense of well-being, welfare, and safety plus peace with God, another person, and between nations.
Following a year that seems to have been filled with more-than-usual sad and frightening news, as well as a good deal of global and political conflict, wishes and prayer for Shalom seem most fitting.
P. S. Photos in today’s post were taken by Ron during a recent snowy December day at Bayview, Idaho.
