Merry Christmas Eve


Our palm grove now sways with tinsel covered branches as the manager scene nestles below it. We lost baby Jesus somewhere along the way so there is a mini coconut in his place…
We awoke to the most stunning sunrise. The sky is cloudy but just on the horizon there was an opening and it looked as if Heaven itself was pouring out onto the waters below. We scooped up the kids and headed to the beach to soak up the sight. I never want to forget the image of the kids scampering in the sand as God’s glory filled the sky. What a reminder once again that Christmas is about the all-powerful God who came with His compassion down to earth because of His love for us all.
We hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas and will hopefully be able to post again soon!!!!!
