COT/BOM
Memento Mori (Latin: “remember that you have to die” is the medieval Latin Christian theory and practice of reflection on mortality, especially as a means of considering the vanity of earthly life and the transient nature of all earthly goods and pursuits.

Psalm 90:12 – “So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.”

Life is a gift and stewardship, given to each of us for the benefit of others.  We are blessed as we are a blessing where we are.  Choose to live fully today, choose to be a life-giver wherever you are.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Jesus Christ is the real meaning of Christmas.  This morning we took time to listen to the Christmas Story from Luke 2:

In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while[a] Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to their own town to register. So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” 15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.  21 On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
10% of us is visible to the whole world.  The other 90% (everything that goes on in our hearts and minds) is only known to us and God.  Is there stuff going on in our 90% that we want changed?  If so, working harder and trying to come up with the power on our own to change the big stuff that needs to be changed is a fruitless, exhausting effort that most likely won’t work.  The answer:  “Desperate Prayer”.  Go to God in authentic surrendered desperation and ask Him to release His Spirit to work in you – get specific on what you want changed, and get desperate, and do it regularly, and see what happens.  Praise Him.
MOLESKIN:
Pray for Mayberry’s family, Praise for Ratchet’s parents
