Simple Christmas

 

The king is coming.

Why are we not all singing loud for all to hear in the aisles of Walmart?

Perhaps because you, like me, often get off track on what the "musts" are in this season.

The only real must is to be IN the light.

Spend time with Him.

You were made to tell and talk of Him.

You were made to worship.

Mama Warriors, I think sometimes we complicate the simple. Anyone else an over thinker here?

You don't have to be a biblical scholar or a person who has it all figured out to share the light.

In fact, I'm finding that by bringing people into my mess, stepping into theirs, that's where He's transforming me. Transforming them.

You just have to be willing to be a womb.

A space where love grows.

A vessel for Him.

As you spend these next few days surrounded by friends and family (functional or dysfunctional), let me challenge you to be a womb. Be a vessel. Be a place where love grows.

Let love shine.

Sit next to the relative who talks too much (It's probably me). Carry the packages out to the car for a family with littles to buckle in car seats. Hold the baby so the new mama gets to eat hot food. Refill grandma's sweet tea.

You don't have to shove Jesus on folks. You just have to let your light shine so others can see what He looks like walking here on earth.

Love God, Love people.

Simple Christmas.
