Christmas – the season of WONDER and CELEBRATION.
We WONDER at the mystery of the incarnation.
[ctt template=”2″ link=”Y25fM” via=”yes” ]We CELEBRATE the birth of the Son of God – the coming to earth of the Word, the Light of the World. @HaddixDeborah[/ctt]
So very often, though, our sense of wonder and our celebration get overshadowed, even snuffed out, by the busyness of the season – gift buying, meal planning, programs, and parties.
May this year be different.
Below are four brand new resources created for the purpose of helping to slow us down and encourage us to celebrate and enjoy the season of WONDER and CELEBRATION. I pray that one or two might help you plan, celebrate, and enjoy your Christmas just a bit more.
Names of Jesus Scripture Challenge – 30 days of Scripture to help you focus on Jesus this Christmas season. Use it as a reading plan, Scripture writing plan, or as a help for digging deeper into God’s Word.
30 Christmas Traditions for Your Family – Traditions are an important part of a family’s dynamic. Is it time to reassess your family’s Christmas traditions? Might it be time to institute a new one or two or perhaps, even, to discard a few that simply have no meaning for your family but add to your busy schedules?
Ideas for Loving on Your Spouse through the Christmas Season – Christmas can be such a busy time, especially for women, and it’s often those who are closest to us that tend to feel neglected or overlooked. In this resource you will find a few ideas for making sure your husband feels loved and appreciated even through the busiest of seasons.
Christmas Journaling Prompts – For the journaler, the reflector, the processor of thoughts – 31 journaling prompts to aid in the recording of and reflecting upon of this Christmas season.
May your Christmas season be filled with WONDER and CELEBRATION.
