Advent: December 5

Barbara Curtis of Mommy Life always posts inspirational and helpful material. Go here to read a reprint of a newspaper article about a special ranch near Austin, Texas where the residents grow poinsettias.

I suppose this story is a Christmas story because it features poinsettia plants. However, it’s also an all-year-long story because God places special people in our lives year round. Take note of the doctor in the story. If you haven’t been handed the challenge and privilege of parenting a special needs child, you can still be an encourager to someone who has. On second thought, they’re all special needs children in some way or another, aren’t they?

As Donna would say, encourage one another.
