My church’s trees only have white lights but they are beautiful and shine so brightly behind our worship team.
The only decorating I did this year was to set up my Nativity as we will not have any family and where I normally set up my tree would be in the path of my husband’s Walker. I love the simplicity of my Nativity (ceramic painted to look like wood carvings).
Jean I want to wish you and your family a very blessed and Merry Christmas.
I always look forward to your blogs, and have enjoyed your Christmas and Advent Devotionals.

I am grateful for you too, Linda. You know we can complain so much about the internet and social media but on the other hand I have made great friend through this media and am richer because of you!! Merry Christmas!

I love to add them to my tree – keeps me focused on Jesus! Merry Christmas, Lisa!

Merry Christmas!

You’re always giving me a fresh lens to see God at work. I’m so grateful that He’s put you on my path in the past year or so … your posts build my faith, enlarge my world, spark something creative inside.

Merry Christmas to you, friend …

White and gold ARE the perfect colors! I bet that butterfly is beautiful too. I can just imagine it. Merry Christmas, Nancy!

I almost didn’t put up a tree this year either, Martha. But my hubby wanted to, It does sound like you did decorate tho, No rule that a tree HAS to be part of it. Be true to yourself! Merry Christmas

wool would be a very cool medium for your ornaments. I bet lovely too. Merry Christmas, Pat!!

My favorite might be the sequined butterfly that brightly glistens in the tree light! I didn’t know the origin of the custom–thank you for sharing, Jean!

We did the same last year for the same reason. That’s not being grinchy, Martha, it’s being practical! You’ll have time for other pursuits–longer quiet times perhaps.

We decided not to put up our tree at all this year since no family will be coming round to see it. I know, that may sound grinchy, but we have other cheerful decorations up for the holidays.
Blessings!
