May grace and peace be yours as we walk through this beautiful and glorious week ahead.
Let us have eyes to see this Christmas as if it was our first and last,
And a heart to know the depths of His love, poured out for us.
I would much prefer your temperature to ours right now. Enjoy your Christmas. My tree is white and gold too ; )

ReplyDeleteWonderful words Karen and I love your (tropical) pictures, especially the black cockatoo, the flame tree and second photo, all so unusual for us to see.

Beautiful photos of nature at Christmas time in Australia seen through your magic lens. Your tree looks wonderfully elegant. Much happiness and blessings to you and your family, Karen. It must be a joy to sit around that lovely tree on Christmas morning and watch all your 'children' open their presents.
