Each day, no matter what was going on, I was “forced” to think of at least one thing for which I was thankful. That truly was a blessing. It’s so easy to take many things for granted until we start looking how much we really have in our lives.

While You Were Sleeping

Posted in Christian Life, and Holidays

While You Were Sleeping sung by Casting Crowns Oh little town of Bethlehem Looks like another silent night Above your deep and dreamless sleep A giant star lights up the sky And while you’re lying in the dark There shines an everlasting light For the King has left His throne And is sleeping in a manger tonight Oh Bethlehem, what you have missed while you were sleeping For God became a man And stepped into your world today Oh Bethlehem, you will go down in history As a city with no room for its King While you were sleeping While…
