(December's blog post)
Music Video: The Heart of Christmas.
It’s that time of year again. December…and even crazier, it’s almost over. Most often, that one word can strike you with terror, just because of how busy you can get at this time. So much on our to-do lists to take care of. What if we just took a moment to stop, sit still and soak it all in. I mean really take in the “Reason for the Season”.
Jesus!
It’s why we all are here in the first place, right? It’s because of His birth, His death, His resurrection that we are able to have a fresh new beginning with our Father in Heaven. It’s the reason we believe and want to share with others about this amazing event while we are here on earth, waiting for Christ’s return for His followers.
We all face good and bad times. Sometimes we feel that sense of why is this happening to me? Why did I have to go through this? It’s knowing that in every good and bad situation we are faced with, Our God knows how to use us in each and every situation we have been through. It’s hard sometimes to wonder what that reason is really for, but knowing that there is a greater plan for our lives even if we don’t know what it may be yet.
I love the music from Matthew West. One song, The Heart of Christmas, from the movie The Heart of Christmas, tells the story of a family through their journey with their son at St. Jude Children’s Hospital and the life they had dealing with treatments. Dealing with so much with their young son and having to get through life in general. It’s so great how their family, friends, new friends and even strangers pulled together to help this family out. To be a voice, to lend a hand, to pray for them.
So what's your favorite thing to do during this amazing season? How do you show the Heart of Christmas to those around you?
