This one for Ed, the animal activist - Wishing a MERRY CHRISTMAS to ALL

                               MERRY CHRISTMAS
                          TO ALL  AND TO ALL  A
                                   GOOD  NIGHT

MAY YOU HAVE THE BEST OF
CHRISTMAS'S AND ALL YOUR
ANIMALS TOO...........................

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD
THAT HE PICKED A STABLE WITH
ANIMALS FOR HIS BIRTH
SIMPLICITY WAS HIS MOTTO
GLORY WAS YET TO COME

SUFFERING HE WOULD BEAR
FOR US AND A SWORD WOULD
PIERCE HIS MOTHER'S HEART

SO IF WE WONDER WHY WE
SUFFER, THIS INDEED IS THE
ANSWER. SIMPLICITY MUST BE OURS
ALSO BECAUSE IF IT WAS GOOD
ENOUGH FOR JESUS, THEN IT IS
GOOD ENOUGH FOR US.

GLORY BE TO THE FATHER,
THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT

and may we know the glory of  God
this Christmas Season and All Year
long.................marguerite 'lil flower

PS; BE SURE TO LEAVE THEM
A PRESENT UNDER THE TREE
OR THEY MIGHT LEAVE ONE
FOR YOU   tee hee tee hee LOVE
