Holidays
Report Article
Many churches begin the Christmas season with hanging of the greens services. Worshipers hang ornaments on a Christmas tree as they explain a spiritual significance of each. Evergreen tree branches are draped along choir loft banisters in recognition of the everlasting life Jesus offers.
Do you have favorite tree ornaments? If so, it could be because of sentimental value…
Teary-eyed, a wife hangs a tarnished ornament from the couple’s first Christmas. Her heart flutters as she lifts another from her ornaments box. It’s one she purchased for their baby daughter’s first Christmas.
Can we set a financial value to such keepsakes?
I’ve never stepped inside Tiffany's but they might feature exquisite holiday ornaments. The wealthy could hang a 24 carat gold star atop their trees.
Few will celebrate this Christmas with ornaments of gold; yet, we’re blessed beyond measure through the Christ Child of the manger.
“And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn (Luke 2:7 KJV).”
Cradle to cross; we worship Christ.
He was without sin and yet they hung Jesus on a tree.
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree (Galatians 3:13 KJV).”

Thanks for the memories Pam and a very Merry Christmas to you and Mr. Norm!
PS: you like visiting England so you might enjoy this: a young London singer named Sydnie Christmas claims she was given the middle name of "Merry" by her mother. That's a British sense of humor at it's best.
I carry a Gold dollar bearing her image in my pocket and think of her often.
Her courage saved the Expediation on three separate occasion, the last of which was diving into freezing rapids and saving the dugout that carried all of the spare rifles, powder and flints along with Lewis's surveying and lab instruments.
She always deferred to the judgement of men until they were clearly making the wrong choice and then she would spell out the choice to take during dire times. My uncle Marvel Davis sought for years to have her recognized on a US coin and finally got it done through Senator Tom Harken.
