It's hard to believe that one of our most anticipated holidays is just around the corner. Christmas is such an amazing time...it seems to be a time when almost everyone is happy, there is love, there is a sense of caring, of family, of excitement.
So often we can get caught up in the excitement that we can tend to forget the real reason of why we celebrate Christmas.. It's not just celebrating Jesus birth, but I believe it is celebrating every aspect of Christ....mainly HiIs never ending, unconditional love for us. We celebrate our freedom, our hope, our peace....
Christmas time can also be a time of stress..financially, or emotionally, but I encourage you today to keep focusing on HIM who loves us, cast your burdens and concerns on him, let Him carry you through this season...and look for the little things He wants to encourage you with today.
God takes cares of us like a Shepherd. He gathers each lamb in his arms and carries them close to His Heart.
Isaiah 40:11
