Diane Virginia: Mary’s Song (3-Min)

VineWords Devotions and More

Sing unto the LORD a new song.  Psalm 149:1b KJV As shoppers hurried into the mall to escape the winter winds, one man ambled towards the entrance to a store, methodically tapping his cane. He touched the door. Then he paced ten steps away. Dropping to his knees, he placed his hat on the ground for tips and pulled an instrument from his tattered jacket. With recorder flute in hand, the man played Silent Night, The First Noel, and Drummer … Continue reading →

VineWords Devotions and More

Who doesn’t love Christmas and the memories it brings? As you think of your favorite Christmas, what makes it memorable for you? Was it where you spent it, who you spent it with, or the gift you received? Maybe it was unforgettable because of the gift you gave to someone special.

Español: Contributor Glenda Shouse: No te lo Pierdas: Don’t Miss It!

VineWords Devotions and More

Ah! Llegó la Navidad volando de la misma manera que la motocicleta pasa rugiendo. Quiero que mi corazón se concentre en la parte importante de la celebración–Jesús. Él es la razón por la que celebro y planifico momentos especiales con familiares y amigos. Si no estoy presente en la estación, consciente de las cosas que llenan mi corazón, mente, y tiempo, perderé la verdadera celebración, el nacimiento de Jesús. Lo mejor de la Navidad es esperar con expectación este día … Continue reading →

Español: Diane Virginia: No un Abrazo Cualquiera: Not Just Any Hug

VineWords Devotions and More

Nan se sentó en su sillón reclinable admirando su regalo de Navidad. Sus nietos le habían regalado una tableta. Ella estaba intrigada de que podía leer sin voltear la página. “Nanna,” llamo Matt. Nan apenas oyó a su nieto mientras que ella jugueteaba con el teclado. “Nan, me voy a casa,” dijo Matt, “así que dame un abrazo”. Nan estiró un brazo hacia su nieto, balanceando la tableta sobre sus rodillas. “¡No, no! Quiero un abrazo de verdad. Vamos, levántate,” … Continue reading →

Glenda Shouse: Don’t Miss It!

VineWords Devotions and More

Zoom!  There goes Christmas flying by the same way the motorcycle roared past. I want my heart to be focused on the important part of the season–Jesus. He is the reason I celebrate and plan special times with family and friends. If I’m not present in the moment, aware of the things filling my heart, mind, and time, I will miss the true celebration, the birth of Jesus. A big part of Christmas is anticipating the special day. As I … Continue reading →

Diane Virginia: The Christmas Cardigan

VineWords Devotions and More

So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly, or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7 NKJV CHRISTMAS MORNING Sparkling, sun-kissed snow caused puddles to form on the cobblestone sidewalk. Tiny streams meandered toward the red brick steps leading to the veranda. White colonnades, wooden rockers, and potted evergreens added elegance to this stately home. It was a picturesque morning. That is, it would have been, except for the turmoil within. … Continue reading →
