Respite For the Weary
Here we are in the beginnings of the Christmas season, and I already feel surrounded by lots of the swirling and twirling activities that accompany the season.

Will I choose Jesus or will I choose the season?
I invite you to join me in reading the 25-day devotional, "Who is this Jesus and Why did He Come?". Each day, 5 defining verses are provided for you to "be still in" during the rush of the holy-days. This small booklet can be found on-line at www.respitefortheweary.com.

Dear Lord,
Your name and your character never change. You will always be our Protector, our Comforter, our Gift Giver...our Savior! Your ongoing consistency has become our peaceful security in this chaotic world. Thank you, thank you, thank you. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
