A wole new meaning!

Christmas was always an exiting time of the year for me! All the family together, lots of presents, food, food, and did I mention food?!

Now is the beginnig of December, Christmas is not even here yet and because I'm a new "mama" (Becca, I adopted this word :) my heart overflows of thankfulness for Jesus and God's Love Plan of from the manger, to the cross, to resurrection...it makes me cry really hard! (I should start preparing my heart for Easter...)

The faith Mary had in God as a new Mama encourages me to put all my trust in God and to relay on His understanding and perfect knolodge of all things. Her trust in God it's been a highlight to me this year, giving me a wole new meaning of a relationship with The Father! Mary's faith made her answer to "crazy news" be:

"My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts" Luke 1:46-51

What's the meaning of Christmas for you?
