~Dearest Family and Friends~
Today I was thinking about Christmas. . .while
rushing to get the last few gifts and listening to Christmas music. . .I looked
at all the beautiful decorations and fancy displays in the stores. . .and the
thought came to me my favorite decorations at Christmas are my family and
friends.
YOU decorate my life, not only at Christmas, but
all through the year. Some of you are brand new and I'm just learning to
appreciate your value. . .others of you have become old favorites with many
cherished memories attached to your existence. I am so thankful for the beauty
of your friendship. . .for the warm glow you bring to my heart. . .for the
light you shed on my pathway. . .for the color and sparkle you add to the
events we share in. . .for the joy you bring to my pain. I love my decorations.
. .I'm sentimental so even though I love getting "new decorations" I
will always treasure those I first found at the beginning of my life. . .and
someday my "new decorations" will be old friends with memories
galore.
Jesus is the "Topper" in my life. . .he
makes all my “decorations” work together for good. . .but he is my most
cherished. He was preparing for me the most precious gift long before I even
was born. . .Oh what a Savior!
So, go ahead and let your "life" shine. .
.make a difference in the lives of others. . .let them feel the depth of Christ
when they touch your life. . .decorate them with the love, joy and peace you
feel. . .help them REJOICE because they have a Savior.
