Let us put by some hour of every day for holy things...

I will not doubt, though all my ships at sea
Come drifting home with broken masts and sails.
I will believe the Hand which never fails,
From seeming evil, worketh good for me.
And though I weep because those sails are tattered,
Still will I cry, while my best hopes lie shattered:
I trust in Thee.
--Ann Kimmel

Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines, the labor of the olive shall fail and the fields shall yield no meat, the flock shall be cut off from the fold and there shall be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. Habakkuk 3:17-18

Hope It's a Jim-Dandy!



Hugh Brannum, better known to millions of baby boomers as "Mr. Green Jeans"












If my face wears an extra-special smile
And my eyes have an extra-special glow,
It's because my favorite holiday
Is on the way
And I know...

We're gonna have a real jim-dandy,
ginger-peachy sugar candy jamboree jubilee
crackerjack Christmas this year!

We're gonna have a sleighbell ringing' warm
and friendly carol-singin' rollicky frolicky
crackerjack Christmas, I hear!

There'll be holly and sparkling snow
And a jolly lot of mistletoe, so...

Get ready for a very very super-duper
extra-merry lollapalooza of a Christmas,
my dear

'Cause we're gonna have a real humdinger
of a wing-ding whizz-bang bang-up gumdrop
big fat crackerjack Christmas this year!
