COT: Top theories per Wikipedia why Friday 13th is considered unlucky: 1. Judas was the 13th guest at the Last Supper; 2. French state crackdowns on Knights Templar Friday 13th, October 1307; 3. something about 13 Norse gods and mischief. YHC recounted the role that luck or chance has played in his life; focusing on the good luck. E.g., lucky birth country, stable family, etc. The saying that you don’t feel the wind when it’s at your back certainly applies. Focusing on your good fortune is a great way to practice gratitude and being more thankful generally. SYITG

“All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”[a] (which means “God with us”).
Matthew 1:22-23″Advent is a season of light and hope in the midst of darkest time of year, the light of the God who is coming to be the God who is with us. As we love as He love, as we serve as He served, we reflect His light to the world around us.
