Christmas Eve Ramblings
As Christmas Eve approaches, I’m getting excited. I guess there’s enough of a child in me that I always look forward to Christmas, and the day before is when I wrap any gifts that I’ve purchased and this year, I’ll also work on organizing my bedroom. I’d hoped to do so before now but I want next week to be relaxing and enjoyable. I need to hear from God and it’s a lot easier to hear Him when my space is not so chaotic. There is other house cleaning that will need to be done too but I won’t think about that just yet.
I was thinking this evening about the verse which talks about learning how to be abased and learning how to abound. I’ve been in both positions and everywhere in between and I think sometimes it’s harder to learn how to abound. People who have money seem to think it’s a cure-all while people who don’t often realize what’s truly important. Regardless of if you have a lot or a little, you are very blessed. God knows what you need and He will continue to provide those things for you.
As you go through this day, take time to count your blessings. Every time God brings something else to your mind, thank Him again. He’s so worthy and we have so much to be thankful for! (Do I say that enough?)
