THAT’S A BEAUTIFUL THING…#49

December 24, 2008 by tonja No Comments

MANGER
From Wikipedia,

Wooden trough
A manger is a trough or box of carved stone or wood construction used to hold
food for animals (as in a stable). Mangers are mostly used in livestock raising. They are also used to feed wild animals, e.g., in nature reserves. The word comes from the French manger (meaning “to eat”), from Latin manducare (meaning “to chew”).

A manger is a feed trough found in a stable. In Bible times mangers were made from clay mixed with straw or from stones held together with mud; sometimes they were carved in natural outcroppings of rock. The above photograph was made at Megiddo where this manger was used in the stables of King Ahab
“And she brought forth her firstborn, a son, and wrapped him in cloths, and laid him in a manger…” Luke 2:7

“This will be a sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger…”

Luke 2:12
“So the shepherds hurried off and found Mary and Joseph and the baby, who was lying in a manger…” Luke 2:16
**************************************************************************
This most beautiful story of the birth of Jesus can be found in the Holy Bible, in the book of Luke, chapter 2, verses 1-20.

CREEK HOUSE UPDATE

December 24, 2008 by tonja No Comments


We are in-mostly.

I am beyond tired.

I have great pics and stories to share with you—hilarious stories…just wait!

I am blessed far more than I could ever deserve. God is good!

I am going back to sleep now….it is 4:20 AM…and it is not wise to write too much at this hour of the day…embarrassing things may slip out.

I pray that YOU have the very best Christmas ever! May your homes be filled with love and laughter and sweet memories…old and new.

Forgive me for not visiting each of you with a personal message, just think of me surrounded by mountains of STUFF…perched on a BOX…to get to my computer. OK, quit thinking…it’s not THAT funny!

Good Morning…see you after THE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.

About Me

about us image

I am a Christian woman who has survived many years on the planet. God has blessed me with a wonderful family: husband, 3 sons, a dear DIL, and a precious grandson. I also have dear friends to keep me inspired. I am an artist of sorts and am finding my way through the great blessing of retirement. I recently retired after 20 years as a music teacher. Life is good!
