decorations, part 2

the true meaning of Christmas...

Suddenly a great army of heaven's angels appeared with the angel, singing praises to God:

"Glory to God in the  highest heaven and peace on earth to those with whom He is pleased.."

All of these angel decors were bought AFTER CHRISTMAS when they are slashed in price rather than be brought back to the stock room..Some have lights, some don't, but they are garbed in breathtaking costimes are their faces are..how can I say it in a better word, angelic...

 

When the angels went away from them back into heaven, the shepherds  said to one another,  "Let us go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the angel has told us.."

The manger persons I bought from a Carlton card store in Toronto a few days before Christmas and I had to wait in line. The price was already marked down at that time.  I also was lucky having bought the last box ( with all the pieces tucked neatly inside ). The "house"  was bought somewhere else, and the sheep were bought from  a Dollar store...

So, they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph and saw the baby lying in the manger. When the shepherds saw him, they told  them what the angel had said about the child. All who heard it were amazed at  what the shepherds said..

This decor ( a one piece manger with all the characters glued together ) I bought from a Goodwill store..The price was an amazing 2.50 $..But its value is one hundred times more than its buying price..

 

Mary remembered all these things and thought deeply about them. The shepherds went back, singing praises to Godfor all they have heard and seen; it has just as the angels have told them..---#

AMEN, ALLELUIA....!!!
