And that and more he paid ... and some have still not heard, but then perhaps they may word your words, and come flocking. Lovely, Audrey

Christ's willingness to exchange the "crown of gold" for a "crown of thorns" to save our souls is the definition of sacrifice, Dimples. I love all of your Christmas monokus! How will you decide which one to enter in Constance's contest? This one would be a great choice, dear friend. Thanks for you kind words on my wedding poem. He did get drunk and I had to carry him over the threshold after we had a near accident in the snow-covered roads. He's forever in my heart. Love you, Carolyn
