Give the Present of Presence

Don’t let the business of the day take you away from being present. Yes, there are things to do, but the most important thing is just being there with your sweetie and others.

If you find yourself getting too frazzled, pause and pray. Then ask yourself what really needs to be done and let the rest go.

Relax and enjoy this day with the people God has placed in your life and remember to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus. :)

The birth of Jesus made possible not just a new way of understanding life but a new way of living it. Frederick Buechner


  • Prayer Prompt: Ask God to help you stay present today and celebrate with Him.
  • Hot, Holy, & Humorous: Marriage & Mistletoe: A Free, Downloadable Christmas Board Game for You Print it out for a little holiday fun.
  • Life of Joy: Christmas Eve I want to celebrate first and second Christmas! (It feels rather “hobbit-ish”.) This is also a great example of making a holiday work for you instead of doing what is traditional.
