MT. MORIAH
Blessed are those who have embraced

REDEEMED!

THROUGH THE EYES OF A CHILD
Blessed are the Roman Imperial Census Takers,
the no-room-in-the-inn keepers,
the obviously oblivious Bethlehem citizens,
the heavenly angelic choir members,
the stinky old shepherds,
the wandering star gazers,
the confused barn animals,
Joseph and his line of the tribe of Judah
standing faithfully beside
Mary and her Little Lamb,
Who, with the eyes of God,
was tenderly watching over them all.
From His eternal perspective,
peeking through the swaddling clothes,
they shall forever be called…
MANGER SEEN.
Matthew One and Two
Luke One and Two

WAITY THOUGHTS
Blessed are
those who have learned the
benefits of gaining…
wait.
They shall be called
PATIENTS.
