Merry Best of Everything to All!

I wish for everyone this Christmas, much love, laughter and happiness. But most of all I wish for PEACE without and within.

To all the treasured online friends I've made over the last few years(and you know who you are!) & all my new bloggie friends, followers and lurkers from both my blogs, the following poem/prayer, sent to me by one of those online friends(thanks Sandra), says it all.

Much love to you all!

Every single evening as I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer keeps running through my head:
God bless all my family wherever they may be,
Keep them warm and safe from harm for they're so close to me.

And God, there is one more thing I wish that you could do;
Hope you don't mind me asking, please bless my computer too.
Now I know that it's unusual to bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second while I explain it to you, Lord..

You see, that little metal box holds more than odds and ends;
Inside those small compartments rest so many of my friends.
I know so much about them by the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of metal takes me in to where they live.

By faith is how I know them much the same as you.
We share in what life brings us and from that our friendships grew.
Please take an extra minute from your duties up above,
To bless those in my address book that's filled with so much love.

Wherever else this prayer may reach to each and every friend,
Bless each e-mail inbox and each person who hits 'send'.
When you update your heavenly list on your own great CD-ROM,
Bless everyone who says this prayer sent up to GOD.Com

Amen

See you after Christmas. Have a safe one!

Friendship is the golden thread that ties the heart of all the world. ~ John Evelyn
