Yaupon Holly

With winter approaching, the beautiful Yaupon Holly bushes are turning blood red and so beautiful. The beautiful berries provide a great food source for wildlife and birds.

As we approach the holiday season, the vibrant color of the holly berries and the plants "thorny" disposition, we are reminded of the crown of thorns and the drops of blood shed by JESUS.
Soon we will celebrate Thanksgiving and then Christmas. This year so many have lost everything and are in desperate need of so many things that we take for granted. Give thanks for all the beautiful things GOD created for us to enjoy and all the many blessings HE has given us. Even in our worst times, no matter what the situation, we still have so much to be thankful for.

Rejoice in the LORD always: and again I say Rejoice.
Let your moderation be know unto all men. The LORD is at hand.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto GOD.
And the peace of GOD, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through CHRIST JESUS.

Philippians 4:4-7
