Keeping Christ in Christmas!

I Corinthians 13 Christmas Style If I decorate my house perfectly with lovely plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights, and shiny glass balls, but do not show love to my family — I’m just another decorator. If I slave away in the kitchen, baking dozens of Christmas cookies, preparing gourmet meals, and arranging a beautifully adorned table at mealtime, but do not show love to my family — I’m just another cook.

If I work at the soup kitchen, carol in the nursing home, and give all that I have to charity, but do not show love to my family — it profits me nothing.

If I trim the spruce with shimmering angels and crocheted snowflakes, attend a myriad of holiday parties, and sing in the choir’s cantata but do not focus on Christ — I have missed the point.

Love stops the cooking to hug the child.

Love sets aside the decorating to kiss the husband.

Love is kind, though harried and tired.

Love doesn’t envy another home that has coordinated Christmas china and table linens.

Love doesn’t yell at the kids to get out of your way.

Love doesn’t give only to those who are able to give in return, but rejoices in giving to those who can’t.

Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.

Love never fails. Video games will break; pearl necklaces will be lost; golf clubs will rust. But giving the gift of love will endure.

Tantrums and Prayer

My youngest son had a terrible tantrum at the toy store today!

He was overly tired, in need of a nap, and Mommy didn't pay attention!

Poor baby!

I had to pray that the Lord would send me some patience, as well as get us out of the store without causing too much of a ruckus. It was close!

3-year-old little boys just don't have the communication tools to tell us when they are tired.

They just don't know how to behave well when they are overly tired.

Dear Lord,

Please help me to be better in tune with my children. Show me when they need to sleep and what I can do to create a sense of peace for my children at all times.

Help me to be a blessing to those around me, and a good role model for my children.

Amen

~Kristen
