Speaking of Ron Paul being an OB-GYN, that doesn’t make him pro-life.

And as my father-in-law would say, “Ron Paul delivering 4,000 babies doesn’t make him pro-life. It just makes him rich.”

Never forget the price that was paid to liberate a nation and people.  The cost of our country’s way of life was great; let’s all do our part in keeping this the greatest country in the world.

She’s our miracle and Christmas will be more about family and God than what you are getting. It’s all about our family now.

~ Mom Kristi Rhodes comments on 4-month-old daughter Savannah’s surprise conception, DNJ.com, December 24

After suffering 10 miscarriages due to a hormonal issue, Kristi discovered she was pregnant during unrelated preoperative tests and was successfully treated by a high-risk OB so Savannah could be carried to term. She and husband Paul also have an adopted son, Caleb, age 5.

For those of you who are medically able to participate in blood donation, here is your reminder if you haven’t done so for a while…or if you never have given at all.

It is such a great feeling to donate, knowing you are saving lives.  I am many months overdue in donating blood (due to being borderline diabetic) but plan on doing so this week.  Also, a shout out to the LORD in that I am no longer pre-diabetic (soooo hard to give up for the most part sugary sodas, ice creams and chocolates).

Will you consider saving lives with a blood donation?  There is always a shortage, becomes a great habit once you start, and one of the best Christmas gifts you can still give this year.

They’re all promising to sacrifice something that’s really crappy and you should be cutting down on it just for health purposes.

Merry blessed Christmas, everyone!

Am reposting my WND Christmas column from 2004, The Embryonic Jesus Story…

At this time of year, we focus on Christ’s birth, but there is a fascinating incident the Bible describes near the beginning of Jesus’ human life, several months prior. It is the Embryonic Jesus Story.

Luke 1 tells about the first person besides Jesus’ mother and earthly father who recognized He was extraordinary – Jesus’ cousin John, while John was yet a fetus, and Jesus was but an embryo.
