The life around you….
Now I don’t know your situation. I don’t know your struggles, your joys, your sorrows, I may not even know you. But I do know that God is a good God. As we come to celebrate Jesus’ birthday and the start of a new year please keep these things in mind,

 
Be thankful for your life- breathe in a deep long breath, close your eyes and remember that God loves you more then you can ever imagine. He gave you breathe and life, please don’t take it for granted.


 
Remember that everyone has pain, dificultes, problems, joys, sorrows, and things going on in their lives that you may or may not know about. Please  keep those around you in prayer, even if it’s a simple short prayer like, “God please bless so and so, watch over them and give them Your peace.” That short prayer could make all the difference in the world. 


 
Tell those you love, that you love them. Give them a hug, cherish the time you have with them. Last Christmas Eve I saw Elly for the last time in my life. We caught up with each others lives, shared goals and gave each other a hug. I’ll cherish that memory forever.


 
Enjoy your home. If you’re reading this you most likely have a house to live in, a roof over your head. So many people don’t out there. I met a family last week who lost their home, and every thing they owned, in a fire the day after thanksgiving.  Enjoy the blessings God gave you but don’t get obsessed over them. They could be gone in a moment. Instead get obsessed with God, He loves you so very much.

 Enjoy the life around you. The stars that light up the night sky, the warm sun, and the fresh air- no matter how cold it may get.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!
