My Take
DiVoran Lites
We hardly ever have snow here in Florida,
But we do have mistletoe growing wild in our woods.
We don’t ski here, except for water-skiing on nice days.
We do have lots of citizens wearing themselves out
Decorating, cooking, visiting, shopping in stores and online.
Trying to “get ready.”
I wonder what your favorite thing is about Christmas.
Is it the music, the decorations, the food, or
Perhaps the get-togethers and visits?
We have a small family and of course the
Best earthly treasure is our time together.
I like the music next.
I put a Christmas station on Pandora and
Play it all day, every day until Bill is ready to hear
Something else.
No matter how we feel about the holiday itself,
We can never forget the young pregnant woman
Who bore the son of God
And dear Joseph the carpenter who helped
Rear Him.
But most of all,
Christ came to earth and spent his life
Reaching out and he spent his death atoning for sin.
We are charged to invite the Holy Spirit to bless others
Through us,so they may know Him and His Father.
We are invited to receive healing for our bodies
Our emotions, and our souls
Good cheer is available all year round
When each day includes relationship
With Jesus-Redeemer.
DiVoran has been writing for most of her life. Her first attempt at a story was when she was seven years old and her mother got a new typewriter. DiVoran got to use it and when her dad saw her writing he asked what she was writing about. DiVoran answered that she was writing the story of her life. Her dad’s only comment was, “Well, it’s going to be a very short story.” After most of a lifetime of writing and helping other writers, DiVoran finally launched her own dream which was to write a novel of her own. She now has her Florida Springs trilogy and her novel, a Christian Western Romance, Go West available on Amazon. When speaking about her road to publication, she gives thanks to the Lord for all the people who helped her grow and learn. She says, “I could never have done it by myself, but when I got going everything fell beautifully into place, and I was glad I had started on my dream.”
Our Florida Santa knows how to celebrate!
