There comes a time when the battery in one's older vehicle must be replaced since it won't hold a charge properly anymore. That time came for my minivan this week: funny how we take getting from point A to B for granted until it's not simple any longer. In the midst of so much to do, I replaced the battery with some Christmas money I'd received, because it might cost more time, money, and energy to fix it otherwise. I suppose it's a lesson in gratitude, I'm glad I passed, and I pray that this coming Nativity celebration, it is not the gifts you receive or the sparkle of decorations that lift your spirits, but the moment of thankfulness for all the simple blessings so often overlooked, which fills your heart as you look upon the brightest star in the sky and wonder what it was like in another time far away, when Christ came to us a little child, born in a manger far from home. God bless you all this season of hope, and throughout the new year. Please enjoy this wonderful art and the serene music at the end. With deepest love and gratitude to my dA friends, -Debra

Finally, important messages:
Advent - the word Shalom"Peace" is a very common word in English, that means different things to different people. It's also a very important word in the Bible that refers not only to the absence of conflict but also to the presence of something else. In this video, we'll explore the core meaning of biblical peace and how it all leads to Jesus.<da:thumb id="721009201"/> and a gorgeous music video.

Sometimes There's A Tunnel
Well, I have enough faves accumulated for 3 more features, but in light of the Kmart store I've worked at 5-1/2 years closing in mid-December. I'm going to take a break from DA for awhile--I'm turning off my Watch spigot but I'll still check my messages periodically. I'm also nearly at 50,000 pageviews and should be doing something special, but I'm not able to now--I will, just note me with a screenshot if you get the 50,000th pageviews, and I'll send you something special by mail or email. Also, it's fall, which tends to be beautiful in Santa Fe, so I really should be spending more spare time outside rather than buried in my phone or at the
Saturation Point
The saturation point of something (defined) is the point at which the greatest possible amount of a substance has been absorbed; it's also the limit beyond which something can no longer be continued, endured, etc. As an American, there are numerous issues on which I hope the public has reached the saturation point, and finds more of the same action or inaction unacceptable. The good news, however, is that there is never a saturation point for too much good news, gorgeous photographs and art, or superb writing! So I present as a rest for the eyes and spirit these great works by your fellow DeviantArt-ists~I hope you'll give them much deserved
Let It Be--Miracle
While the real world waits for miracles--that the urgent efforts of determined people of faith and love, may overcome the destructive power of hatred and greed, we draw inspiration from beautiful images of nature, fantasy, history, and poetic writing. I am pleased to share these wonderful works, the excellent music of Blackmill, and hope they will brighten your day. With love always to my DA friends and watchers, thank you again! -Debra :rose:

Love, Hope, and Persistence
This feature was supposed to be a commentary on America's Independence Day, climate change, and related, but words failed to sum up what I feel inside, so I'll let these pictures do my telling. Each of these wonderful artists and poets deserves your attention, and I hope you'll check out the great song at the end. With love and prayers always, my dear friends! -Debra :heart: :floating: :rose:
