What Readers Are Saying
I like to think I surrender all pieces of my life to Christmas, but I too often find myself controlled by my calendar or even more so my to do list!
Grace
Loved your point on how if we believe that He was born of a virgin and rose from the grave, we shouldn’t have any problems trusting Him with our problems! What a true statement.
Kay
Absolutely love this….
Stephanie
This hit me right where I needed it. Christmas was endured not enjoyed this year. Some of it was out of my control but much of it was my failure to sit enough at the feet of Jesus in spite of the many needs around me. “This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalm 118:24), is one of my favorite verses but I failed to live it. I will today!!! Thank you!
