Shower the People

If I haven’t told you this little lovely fact, may i do so now… I love James Taylor and had the pleasure of seeing him at a bookstore concert and CD signing here in town a couple years ago.

And this is one of his very famous songs, of course. And a lovely little video someone has put to it, don’t you think?

Shower the people, indeed!

Emmanuel

Nocrib

Emmanuel:  that word in Hebrew means “God with us”.  Which is what Christmas is all about. 

This is my nativity scene that comes out each Christmas season to remind us that the birth of Jesus Christ is the reason for the season. This is a lovely set that I found some ten years ago– it was a collector’s edition it said on the box, and each porcelain figurine is crafted with the finest detail.

For the rest of the album, click right here.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.– Isaiah 9:6

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.— Matthew 1:23
