Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise Him again- my Savior and my God. (Psalm 42:11 NLT)
The Christmas holiday can leave me depleted and overwhelmed. The pressure of shopping and running from one place to another and not being able to go to all the places and programs that are important to me, is too much.
It is at this point that I must step back and remember why I celebrate this time of the year. It is because God gave to me, His Son, Jesus. I must be reminded that on this day, God gave me the gift of eternal life through His Son.
Be Encouraged! If you are feeling a little overwhelmed, step back and remember the real reason we celebrate this wonderful time of the year.
