The Christmas season is upon us. As for me, I do not like to overlap my
holidays. I like to plan my preparations for Thanksgiving and enjoy
Thanksgiving with my family before I start preparing for Christmas. I may be in
the minority with this kind of thinking. The Christmas season always tends to
become a time of hustle and bustle. As we get caught up in decorating,
shopping, baking, and attending Christmas parties and concerts, our to-do list
grows and grows. Sometimes you might hear someone say they can’t wait until
Christmas is over. We may lose sight of the reason for the Christmas season. For
Christians, the Advent season began Sunday, December 3rd. During Advent, we
wait and prepare for the coming of Jesus. This is a time to think about Jesus,
God’s gift to us that first Christmas. He gave us the love of Jesus. We can
share Jesus’ love each day. Put “sharing Jesus’ love” at the top of your list
this Advent season. Take time to reflect on what God’s gift means to you.
Lord,
Thank you for the wonderful gift of Jesus and his love.
Help us to share his love each day. Amen.
