Welcome to the 25 Days of Simple Christmas! Each day I will be posting an idea about keeping the holidays simple- so that we can focus on Christ and the real meaning of Christmas!
While Christmas is such a special day, so much of the joy gets lost in the busyness.
Each day I will be writing about a simple way to celebrate the season. To focus on family, joy, and memories, without the elaborate extras that can bring added stress. Simple can be more meaningful if it gives us more time to focus on the huge GIFT we are awaiting-Jesus Christ, our Savior.
We have been reading from Luke 2 every day before we begin our homeschool. We will continue to do so this week. I don’t believe we can ever read it too much-or any of the Bible for that matter.
In this last week before Christmas Day, I am making it a point to really be in the Word and connect with God. To wait expectantly for our Savior’s birth.
Sometimes, I can still hardly comprehend it all. The glory of it, the majesty!
Enjoy the anticipation of the greatest gift God ever gave to mankind. Jesus Christ.
