Kaelyn's Korner

Matthew 2:1-12

Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”

Majesty is defined as impressive stateliness, dignity, beauty or royal power.

Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ epitomizes this word as the Son of God and the son of man—fully God and fully man.

We celebrate this season due to His unparalleled sacrifice.

My husband Brad brought our now 15-month-old son Luke to my ultrasound appointment on Friday.

Together, we discovered that we are having a girl due in April 2023!!

We are excited about this new chapter of life—welcoming this baby girl, our daughter, Luke’s little sister.

My birthday, which is December 4, falls in the Christmas season.

I have always enjoyed decorating for the holiday on my birthday weekend and seeing everyone starting to get into the spirit.

Many ills in society could be cured with thankful hearts.

Thankfulness recognizes what we have rather than what we want or what someone else has.

A thankful heart focuses on the positive, not the negative.

Trusting the Lord through every stage brings peace.

As life is filled with change, the stability in knowing the Lord and Savior, Maker of heaven and earth, is indescribable.

The King of kings does not change like shifting shadows.

Luke is getting so big and helpful.

Around 14 months now, Luke helped me this week by handing me clean dishes from the dishwasher for me to dry and put away.

He can show how old he is by holding up one finger, and he can point to his nose when asked where it is.

Rainy days are some of my favorites.

As an introverted writer, I love curling up with a good book or thinking up story ideas—which are both rare these days.

Watching Luke, working and keeping house fill most of my time.

Nevertheless, I know there are times when I could pick up a book or a pen instead of my phone.
