Advent - The Lookout

"Be on the lookout for a little something at your door soon." 

I was so surprised by this message from a blogger friend!

As I thought about the message,
a verse from the Bible came to my mind--words of Jesus:

"Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, 

and I will give to each person according to what they have done." ( Rev. 22:12)

ADVENT!

Be on the lookout.

He IS coming soon!

***

It DID come.  A pillow! 

I had selected this design in a give-away my friend had sponsored.

I was NOT the winner.  I have NO idea what prompted my friend to gift me,

which reminded me of Elizabeth's words 

when Mary, the mother of our Lord Jesus, visited her:   

"But why am I so favored...."  (Luke 1:43)

And that pretty much sums up another major biblical concept.

GRACE!

Friends, be on the lookout for a little something at YOUR door.  Soon!
