Gosh Renee, you're in full Christmas mode over here at your blog! I can barely keep up! This looks so lovely but I daren't open it as my computer is limping along at the moment and crashes at the mere hint of a YouTube clip! I do love all the festive pictures you've been posting - thank you! Caroline x
You mean a COOK? Hey this image is pure magic! I love cardinals. My mother-in-law loved cardinals and we have several that she made hanging on our Christmas Tree.
Today we have Canadian cold weather down in the gulf. However it is bright and sunny.
Hi Renee!!! We are still waiting for some snow here....that photo is beautiful!!! with the red cardinal...he reminds me of you...you stand out in a very special way!!!
"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me.... I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see.
T'was Grace that taught... my heart to fear. And Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear... the hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares... we have already come. T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far... and Grace will lead us home.
The Lord has promised good to me... His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be... as long as life endures.
When we've been here ten thousand years... bright shining as the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise... then when we've first begun.
"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me.... I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see.
xoxo to my beloved friend renee, her sisters, her children and grandchildren, her husband, her mom, and all her special friends who come here simply and devotedly to love....
I love cardinals! We have them here, and when I first moved east from the west coast, I practically had a car accident pointing them out to my kids! I will visit youtube when my computer thinks I should. Right now it thinks I shouldn't. :) I hope you are having a good day - xoxox love Pam
"What would A. do"? She would tell you what a wonderful human being you are, what a persistent, faithful and loving friend you are. What a comrade in arms, needing very few words and one piece of wood here and there only, to keep the roaring fire alive and going.
She would tell you you are a gift that changes every time she opens the package, and her heart sings and her laughter takes away her pain for that magical moment when she gets what you are doing or thinking. I know she would. Because she has loved you for a very long time silently, and when the time came, you must have realized as well that there was no need for many words that have already been spoken life after life, forever.
OH! Renee, it's my favorite song of ALL! The tiny part of my little finger that is Cherokee loves this! And the beautifil red cardinal picture,,wonderfilled!
Beautiful, Renee! I heard the Celtic Women on public television last night singing this song to the bagpipes. It was awesome! I hope you're having a great day. Love and Blessings, my pal!
Oh my, one of my all time favorite songs. When I'm in the shower I often sing it, or when I've had a bit of wine. And let me tell you, I can sing it sister ;)
Oh yes, surely this is God's grace, he paints those beautiful red birds in the middle of His winter wonderland. Your blog header is so gorgeous, I could stare at it all day. Karen
Hey you, beautiful thing, you. Do you know what you do? You leave star dust everywhere, with every word. I love what you said to me. It brought me tears of joy. ( that's just how I want to feel, touched by an angel) WOW!
oh dear Renee, you had me laughing because I hadn't a clue what you were referring to by "color wheel". It finally landed though, and this is what I mean ~ http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr/
I hope the link works. Unable to put lights on aluminum trees the alternative was a motorized mechanism that sits on the floor next to the tree. The wheel turns round, shining green, red, yellow, and blue light on the tree. Very retro...from the 60's I believe. Many people collect aluminum trees, and the color wheels are rather difficult to find, unless they are made new now, I don't know. thanks for the laugh!
Cardinals are one of my favourite birds especially in the winter. Earlier today, I came by here quickly, saw the photo and smiled. Then later, as I was looking out our rear window in the office, there sitting at the feeder, in all his crimson spledour, was a beautiful Cardinal oblivious to the blowing snow surrounding him. Here's hoping all is going well with you today Renee.
The Native American Peoples have such a spiritual connection to the earth. Their reverence for it and the belief they are not separate from it centers them on the correct path. We are all truly one people.
We are all made of stardust. This is not the final form of our being.
I hope you sleep all night and that a rainbow touches your shoulder in the morning.
To Renee and anyone else who reads this post. YOU are all invited to Come to my Christmas Giveaway. YOu all have two chances to win one of my recent winter paintings. Don't miss the fun. There are other giveaways as well. Please follow directions when you read my post ON MONDAY. I just do not want you all to miss out!
I agree with the not-for-profit roles, I am enjoying connecting with people and helping any way I can so they can cope with their illness in an empowering way.
We have a speaker Phil Kerslake who has written a fantastic book called Life, Happiness & Cancer. I do recommend it! He is such an inspiration.....
Beautiful Renee. Thank you for this, it was truly stunning. I spent a little time browsing in you tube while there and have now posted an inuit version on my blog which is breathtaking too. Lots of love to you. xxx

Now that sounds better. I hate the lyric 'saved a wretch like me' but love the tune so it sounds lovely in another language.
