Too JOYfully Blessed to be Stressed!



        Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  It sure helps you to stay in the Christmas Spirit!

            The countdown is on….only 10 more days ‘til Christmas.  Are you getting stressed, yet?!  There’s still shopping to be done, baking of Christmas goodies, presents to be  wrapped, programs to attend, plus a multitude of other Christmas activities to pack into these next few days.  But stop just a minute and ask yourself: “Am I enjoying this season, or am I getting so caught up in the busyness that I’m focusing on the wrong things?”

            If we’ve lost our focus, then we’ve probably lost our Christmas spirit.  And when we’ve lost our Christmas spirit, we’ll not have JOY.  Of all times, we should exude joy during this season. We are to be celebrating the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

            So…Have you lost your Christmas spirit?  If so, may I suggest that you look for it in the pages of God’s Word?  Deuteronomy 4:29 reminds us that “if you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul.”   Let’s challenge one another to seek the LORD with all of our heart and soul during this Christmas season.  May we keep Jesus as our focal point, putting aside those things that really are not that important, so that we can concentrate on The Supreme One of importance…JESUS! 

            Invite Him into your heart and home this Christmas and you will see this season  through very JOYful eyes.

            Drink your Joy Juice faithfully so that you will experience the sweet Christmas spirit as you celebrate Christ’s birth.
