Tuesday 12/22/09 Luke Chapter 1

Well I am starting to get excited for Christmas. The celebration of the birth of Jesus our Savior and Friend.  With this comes giving of our time, gifts and food.  Yesterday I was brave and went to Wal-Mart boy was I nervous.  I had such a great experience in and out in less than 1 hour, found exactly what I wanted and it was on sale and had enough money to pay cash for everything!!  God is sooo good!  Today alittle bit of shopping for food then some time in the kitchen starting to prepare those things that bring back the memories of Christmas Past.  This is my favorite part of the holidays when I can stay home and prepare for the good times. 
We at our house always have an open house on Christmas Eve and Christmas.  Christmas Eve is full of friends stopping by and I make clam chowder and torteille soup.  Christmas day is full of pj's biscuits and gravy and ham dinner.  Any and all are well for any or all!!  We would love to see you!!

Luke Chapter 1:
This is a long chapter at first glance.....
6 I would love to be know as upright in the sight of God.   What does that mean to you?

13 Do not be afraid the angel said to Zechariah...

19-20 I imagine how I would respond to an angel...  I know I wouldn't be able to speak for awhile either because I would question what was happening...

25 In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people......wow!!

28 I find it interesting that when the angel appeared to Mary he didn't say do not be afraid, fear not nothing about fear.   He said " Greetings you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you" Then he said Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God.

34 How will this be?? Since I am still a virgin?

37 Nothing is impossible with God!!  I think one of the best lines in the bible!!

46-56  Mary's song!

67-79 Zechariahs Song!

My question is has God put a song in your heart?? To me it would be something He has done miraclesously in your life.  I have several things I could sing about!
