That, my friend, would be our dear friend and savior Jesus....and it has taken me most of my life to realize that indeed, he really does exist, and that, of course, he really does love us, especially me.

I can't say my "moment" was like yours, but it was earth shattering, nonetheless.....i was in St Louis still, and i was still with John. We had decided to go on a weekend trip to big spring national park, and we got horribly, crazily lost along the way....mind you, this is southern missouri, DEEP southern missouri and i am black....i was very frightened, but i kept my cool and just tried to relax....John was trying to keep up the jokes and i laughed along as best as i could and all, but i was frightened...i was in this town and it was night and there are too many trees and whatnot and the cell ain't reaching out here...god be with me.....then the worst happened..we had a blow out, and we were alone on this remote missouri road with no light...john was angry, but for some reason i wasn't worried.....just then a stranger stops and asks me what is going on, and i tell him what our plight is...he stoops down, changes the flat, happens to have an extra tire for our car, puts it on, and leaves.....i tried to say thank you and to also pay for the tire, but he wouldn't take it....and leaves before i get his name.

As we were driving in the car, the line in the bible "you will know not the day or the hour of our lord's arrival"..... crept into my head and filled me with...a joy and a hope i haven't had in a looooong time....

Sound like something He'd say, all right.

Christmas has always been a very special occasion for me. It is very close to my heart as it brings about a lot of love and laughter in the air. Truly magical and mystical. Have a great time folks... Wine, Dine and Dance.. in the spirit of love! I went to the London on Chrismas. The city is a shopper’s paradise and the holiday season is the perfect time to sample the delights. The Christmas lights and magical window displays are enchanting. Indulge in Christmas cake, mince pies, Christmas pudding and mulled wine then head to the streets to fill your shopping bags full of goodies.
