Christmas is my favorite time of year. I curl up in front of my TV almost every night to watch the Hallmark channel Christmas shows, or some other show like Rudolf, Frosty, the Grinch, Jack Frost, or any other show I've come across over the years.
Why?
Nostalgia? No.
Peace? Maybe.
I think for me, between readings of Luke and other Bible studies I'm doing, as well as the "feel good" shows, it gives me a love not just for the season, but for people. I love seeing good shows that show love and possitive communication in the story. It doesn't matter to me if the theme is the same in each one. I'm so very thankful to God for prompting folks to make good wholesome things to watch and enjoy during this time of year.
During 2020, I found myself drawn to Christmas shows all year through. I knew that I needed to turn off social media, the news, and other outside world distractions to enjoy love, joy, and peace for a short time. Then I was able to go about my day, filling my cup throughout the day with scripture.
For me, I clung even more to my Bible, praying and searching for words to sooth my soul.
As Christmas day comes and goes and we spend time with family and friends,
cling to peace...
cling to love...
cling to joy..
Pray for your family and loved ones, and take that peace, love, and joy with you from this day forward. Try to "get back to" it if you feel it remotely trying to slip away--get back in to your Bible, and whatever else makes you at peace, feel love, and joyful the whole year through. Love to love on people, cling to it and make this next year one filled with love!
