MERRY CHRISTMAS And the Winner is.............

Merry Christmas Y'all!!!!     I hope and pray that today, as well as every other day, that you stop and think about the Gift of our Savior to the world!!!    Had it not been for His birth, on whatever day He was actually born, we, as sinners, would have NO hope.    Our Hope is in the Lord, that He is who He said He is and that He has done what He said He would do and that He is coming again, and soon, to bring His people home for an eternity in the place He has prepared for us!!!    My friends, if you believe that, then your future is secure in Him!!!!     So thank Him today and praise Him today for that!!!    That is worth shouting about!!   Woohoo, Yay, Praises, Hallelujah!!!!     Thank you Father God that You gave us the best You had to offer on the day Christ was born!!!!!!

As some of y'all know, (the ones who read my blog), back on Dec 10th, 2017, I posted about a giveaway.     No, I did not advertise it.     I will probably never advertise a give away.    But, anyway, I did say that I would  have a drawing on Christmas Day, to celebrate the 200th post that I had made on my blog since I started it way back in 2013.     I put the names in a hat and had my husband draw one out and the winner is........Katknit, aka Char.    Congratulations Char!!!   I will be popping a 3 piece set of jewelry in the mail to you sometime this week.    I hope you enjoy it just half as much as I enjoyed making it!!!! 

Congratulations!!!!!!      I will be contacting you thru google+ privately for your addy info.    This was really fun for me!    I hope it was fun for all of y'all that read my blog and knew I was having my first giveaway.     I plan on doing this from time to time now.     So you will be responsible for reading my blog and knowing when I am having one.     I will, more than likely, never announce that I'm gonna be having a drawing.    There may be a time when I announce, but I don't know when that would be.  So, if you want to win something, just be on the lookout.   You never know when I'll pull a name out of a hat.    hahaha

Well, that's about it for now, short and sweet this go around.   Tell someone today about the gift of the greatest birth the world has ever known.   We are coming up on the start of a new year and I have been asking God what His word for me for 2018 is gonna be.   I have certainly had an amazing year with the word dream for 2017.   God has taken me places I would have never dreamed without His dreams for me.     I look forward to every day with new excitement and adventure.   God  is good, even when the sun isn't shining, God is still good!!!    Always remember God loves y'all and so do I!!!   love and hugs, patty
