SMOKE ON THE WIND

December 16, 2009 Rev. Thomas Dancing Feather Ebbing 0 min read

I love to pray as I write, and I now pray for all humanity, for all of God’s creation.

Bless us one and all, dear God, and please help me to understand how anyone could take offense at hearing someone say Merry Christmas.

I don’t know of anyone who would want anything but to bless you and wish you well when they say Merry Christmas.

So in the name of Jesus Christ, I wish you one and all – Merry Christmas!

Thank you to our community news sponsors!

This is my holiday greeting, that God will bless you and give you peace. He will – yes He will! – and you will feel joy in your heart when you hear and say those beautiful words-

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Rev. Thomas Dancing Feather Ebbing
