'Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child

It is Christmas Eve. All over the world people are rushing around trying to buy some last-minute something they think they can't live without. But there is only one thing we cannot live without, and that is God's love.

"God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life..."

May this life, this love, and God's peace be your blessings at Christmas.

Please pray for Bella.

Bella Update: 07/26/08. Saturday. Bella's good this morning; walk was fun/no squirrels, but we did a different block than usual. She likes variety. Breakfast -- meds soon, the post-walk routine. She slept better last night than the one before. Panting still, but it's hot. So, thank you God for another morning blessing today.

Bella and I are grateful for each of you, for caring and singing (love is all around...), and especially for praying. Please understand this miracle being prayed for, because although it is day by day, it also may take a bit of time for completion: Bella's battle for life, wellness, and a healed heart isn't a sprint but a long-distance run.

What we have right now are day by day blessings: I am prayerfully thankful that her good days may be God's bit by bit miracle, slowly unfolding.
