A very interesting sermon. I find it sad that so much was taken from the people of Scotland in the days of the Reformation. I guess those who made the joyless decisions meant well. Each Advent I fetch out "A Feast for Advent" by Delia Smith and it never disappoints me. Even though it was written so many years ago it still is relevant today.
I cannot imagine how hard this Christmas will be for you - but I am praying that friends and family will surround you with love, and that there will be much joy, hope and peace in your home over the next few weeks ❤️🙏
That is the mindset we all need to have this holiday season.

DeleteJohn Bell's sermon this morning just set the right tone for Advent this year, well worth listening to and reflecting on..
ReplyDeleteYes, it did
DeleteThe covid years have certainly left me feeling as though I want to pay more attention to what really matters at Christmas time.
