Monday Soul Food...
It's easy to get caught up in the busyness of
Christmas, but with an inventory list assessing "Virtues"
we can relieve the stress of the season upon us!
This list of important virtues cannot be bought in
a store and therefore does not cost a penny!
Would you like to be happy and content as you
prepare for the birthday of our Savior?
"Fruits of the Spirit"
~ Love ~ unselfish, loyal & benevolent concern for the well being of others
~ Joy ~ great delight, gladness of heart
~ Peace ~ tranquility, rest, harmony, the absence of agitation
~ Patience ~ ability to endure persecution and ill~treatment
~ Kindness ~ goodness in action, sweetness of disposition
~ Goodness ~ ready to do good, love in action
~ Faithfulness ~ dependability, loyalty and stability
~ Gentleness ~ gracious, kindly disposition, controlled strength
~ self~control ~ restraint or discipline exercised over one's behavior
May each of these virtues rest in your heart during this
busy time of year...reminding ourselves that our character
is a very import task in life!
It is with these virtues that we can overcome difficult
obstacles as we walk the path of life!
Please visit Galatians 5:16~26 to read more about
walking in the Spirit!

Well friends, it's time for me to tackle the next
thing on my to~do list!
Soulfully,
Tammy

Love....joy...for all the true spirit of Christmas blessings....great lamb❤️
ReplyDeleteI Love the Christmas Season. I especially love looking at the Chrismon Tree in our little church. It is so beautiful to me and has a special meaning because my mother stitched all of the cross stitch ornaments on it. There are hundreds of them and they were all stitched for our church with Love. She is no longer with us but, this is a great memory of her. Love the little lamb. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet pinkeep. I promise to give it a very good home if chosen.
ReplyDeleteI love making memories with my grandson. Spending time with those I love. White lights and decorations.

Tammy! I love that darling sheep. I mostly love the perspective you give me on the truth. The virtues... I've been talking with a friend on gifts from the Spirit... doing some soul searching and scripture reading on it. Thank you... because I think this is your spiritual gift. ❤ what I love about the season? Humble humility... can you imagine??? ~ Kim
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance - Christmas for me is always a time to reflect on the year and be thankful for all the experiences and make plans for the next year.
ReplyDeleteWhere family, faith and peace come together in the Christmas spirit!
ReplyDeleteHi Tammy,
ReplyDeleteThank you for a chance to win your adorable sheep pincushion!! I make and collect pincushions, so it would fit perfectly in my home! As to what is my favorite thing about Christmas......I LOVE SO MANY THINGS, but perhaps a very favorite thing would have to be the Christmas music! I have it on most of the day, and it is so encouraging and uplifting!! JOY TO THE WORLD, THE LORD IS COME, LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING!!!!
Heart Hugs~

I love Christmas! It’s a time to remember God’s love of people by sending his Son, Jesus Christ, to live among us while carrying out out his amazing mission. Merry Christmas, Tammy! ceduke2012@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift, Tammy! I love everything about Christmas...I can't name just one thing...mostly getting together with loved ones and celebrating the birth of our Saviour..
ReplyDeleteI’m the one who starts listening to Christmas music in October. That is my favorite,plus the holiday cookie baking. UYour collections are incredible and I Read every blog posts. I wish I could join your club and I know it is priced very well but we have a child in college.
ReplyDeleteI love being with family and friends. Lots of food, lots laughter, and lots of love.

I love many things about Christmas but I would have to choose Christmas Carols as my favorite thing. I sing with the choir in my church (we are a small group but dedicated), we start practicing in September so that gets me going early! Have a wonderful Christmas season.
ReplyDeleteKathy at klemere@gmail.com
What a special gift Tammy, I adore it! This Christmas will be even sweeter as I have a sweet 8 month old granddaughter,I look forward to baking cookies with her when she gets older. I love the special magic of the season!
ReplyDeletemaryanzalone@gmail.com
My favorite thing about Christmas is worshiping together with family and church friends at the Christmas Eve candlelight communion service. I love this special time to quietly renew our welcome to and celebrate the coming of the Christ child!

DeleteChristmas is such a special time with family. Gatherings that bring you all so much closer for some reason and definitely a time to reflect on all those precious memories. Blessings to you and your family Tammy. Happy Holidays. I am at rosaliecolby@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteChristmas is all about the memories and the making of new ones...my cherished memory is that of my two young children carrying the baby Jesus up the center aisle and into the manger, that was nestled beneath the altar...now they are 42 and 40!!! Patricia
ReplyDeleteHi Tammy! what a beautiful, generous give-away my dear friend!
ReplyDeleteI hold Christmas in my heart all year long, as I am reminded everyday of our most precious gift ~ our daughter Hannah! I was due to have her on Christmas Eve, but she decided she couldn't wait and made her appearance on December 20th instead. My absolute favorite memory is of her dressed in a tiny red velvet dress and sleeping peacefully ~ under our Christmas tree <3
Much love to you, dear friend, and Merry Christmas to you & yours!
Lori
The season of Lights! A miracle from heaven.
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding??? Who would not love to own this sweet,lamb of a pinkeep treasure?
ReplyDeleteI am a dreamer and love the Visions of Christmas Tide Blessings.
The anticipation of the joyous coming of our Savior and "Prince of Peace". Sounds of church bells & Christmas Caroling. Scenes of freshly fallen snow, dashing on in a one horse open sleigh. The pungent aroma of freshly baked cookies. A warm and cozy wood burning fireplace.
All to enjoy, gathered together with family & loved ones. What more could one Hope for?
Wishing you and yours 'Glad Tidings of Christmastide Blessings',

Christmas is a time of childhood memories, time spent with family and friends,celebrating Jesus & singing the most beautiful songs to him and those we love, making new memories, giving to strangers and helping them make good memories, it's truly the most wonderful time of the year.
ReplyDeleteI love the lights, smells and colors of the season, but especially the reason for the season, Jesus' birth. I love the Christmas story in Luke.
ReplyDeleteI try my best to keep Christmas in my heart all year long. I love to ponder on the birth of our savior Jesus Christ but also of his sacrifice to pay the debt of our sin. Could there be a more precious gift? It is a wonderful time of the year to be with our children and grandchildren, but when they go home, my husband and I have a tradition of taking a ride into town to look at everyone's lights and decorations, then come home to put presents out under the tree. There is NEVER a present put out until everyone is gone Christmas Eve, or when the kids were asleep when they were still here at home. A special time of the year to be sure.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely giveaway, it's so neat to see everyone's favorite things about Christmas. My favorite things would be decorating the tree and the traditional Polish Christmas dinner that my grandmother made every year and that was carried on by my parents.. oh and St. Nicholas day cookies which is tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThanks
I love a lot of things about Christmas. Advent leading up to Jesus' birthday, Christmas songs about our Savior, crafting and stitching for gifts and decorations. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the generous giveaway! I would love a chance. ~Jessica Talstein (email in profile, or we are FB friends too.)
Oh there are so many things I love about Christmas. I love to reminisce of my childhood Christmases, love spending time with family and friends and I love, love, love to give presents. Thank you for the chance to win such a wonderful prize.

ReplyDeleteTammy: Merry Christmas, love your Scripture, Monday Food For The Soul and the Fruits Of The Spirits, lovely.
ReplyDeleteI am in love with this Season, it brings so many lovely memories to mind, I like going to Mass on Christmas Eve and feeling all the Love from all around me.
Blessings

Merry Christmas to you! Having my family all together in their PJ I made them. Wonderful memory!

I love decorating for Christmas (takes 3 days). All the decorations bring back memories from the past 51 years. Many of the things are items that I have purchased or made but there are also ornaments and decorations that have been given to me by friends and family. It is indeed a magical time of the year.
