When I was a little girl my Mom made us matching candy cane aprons. It was so special wearing my matching apron. Over countless years this apron was worn from Thanksgiving through New Year’s. Many a Christmas cookie was designed and baked wearing this little apron.
As I hung it up this year I remembered all the wonderful holidays with my family. Although they are no longer here they live in my heart.
May you and yours make and cherish Christmas memories.
Merry Christmas to each and every one of you. I wish you the peace and love that this
Shabbat (Sabbath) means to stop work and to be refreshed. Sabbath creates a space to be given new life and energy. Shalom is God’s perfect peace. Shalom is the absence of agitation and discord.

In Esther’s Warriors Ministry, we began in 2012 ‘praying the states’ for healing for our Nation. Queen Esther went before the king to intercede for her people.

Our Nation more than ever needs consistent, diligent prayer cover state by state.
Father God, we thank You that you sent Your Son, Jesus Christ, to be the joy of our salvation. May the joy of Lord be shed abroad in our hearts. May we carry His joy to the world.
Grace us to release others to you with love. Help us to avoid judgment of others as that belongs solely to You. Cleanse our hearts of anything that is not of You.

We are quickly approaching Christmas as we enter this third week of Advent. For many tension rises and anxiety spikes as you search for the perfect gift for everyone, plan your holiday meals and so much more.

I wish you a most blessed second week of Advent! Last week’s theme was peace. I pray you are successful in ‘being the peace’ in your world. It is not always easy but with intention you can live in the peace Jesus died to give you.
Live with purpose seeking first the Kingdom of God and all will be added unto you. Keep His peace in your heart (for it is always a heart issue) throughout the year and it will emanate to those around you.
