SO YAY its almost Christmas…. what a wonderful day Christmas is. I am so blessed to have an awesome family to celebrate this amazing holiday with. I am always full of thoughts and questions when Christmas time rolls around the main one being am I living my life the way that Jesus would want me to? Its hard because we all want to live virtuous and fulfilling lives but we are humans who are flawed and far from perfect. The whole reason for Jesus’ existence was that He freed us from our sins. He knows that we are flawed and that we ARE going to make mistakes, but He is always going to forgive us. That is something so powerful and hard to believe sometimes. When I think about someone that did something so hurtful to me, I think about how I don’t think I would ever be able to forgive that person, yet Jesus does!! AMAZING!!!
So this Christmas I think about all those times that I have fallen away from what Jesus would have done and start again and try harder this time. I learn from my mistakes and then I try to do better next time and sometimes in life we have to make mistakes many many times before we realize what went wrong but fear not, in the end it will all be ok if we Believe! And I know that I sure do and I am so thankful for Gods presence in my life every day!
So I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas that leads us to deeper faith!
i think without Jesus, Christmas might suck for a lot of people. i can attest to that. and this blog reminds me of that fact. good one!
