Welcome to my "Open Window"...a place of hope, encouragement, and adventure as we journey down the road from "Closed Doors" to the new opportunities God places in our pathway. I hope you will take the time to go back and follow the trail of mixed blessings and fears, failures and triumphs from the past and side-trips in the present. Perhaps it will conjure up some of your own special memories, and be an invitation for you to share with others. I look forward to spending this time with you!
What Do You See Outside YOUR Open Window Today?

Let Heaven and Nature Sing!
Today is a good day to sing!
Joy to the World!
The Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King!
Let every heart prepare Him room!
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
and heaven
and heaven,
and nature sing!
Joy to the earth!
The Savior reigns.
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods,
rocks, hills, and plains,
repeat the sounding joy,
repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat,
Repeat the sounding joy!
He rules the earth
with truth and grace,
and makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders,
And wonders of His love.
Amen.
I hope you enjoyed singing along with all nature and the carolers as they herald the Savior's Birth!
Stay tuned for more songs as Christmas day approaches!
In the meantime,
"God rest ye merry gentlemen!"
