Let’s pause and step back into the very first Christmas Eve.
Mary and Joseph were homeless, a day away from giving birth and far away from their family. It was in this moment that they had to choose to trust the God and to this day we all know the result of their choosing to trust Him.
I’ve learned through my own life journeys that if you want God’s best then you have to walk it out with Him, on His terms, from start to finish. This journey is not an easy one, but the longer you stay on the journey with Him the greater your reward will be.
The true meaning of Christmas is becoming more blurred with each passing year.
Don’t let the hustle and bustle of this season smear your resolve to enjoy every moment of your Christmas holiday. Some of these moments will only happen once-in-a-lifetime, so don’t miss a single one. Remember, living life is not about being focused in the past or even on a future. It’s about being in every moment with God and to be ready for whatever God has prescribed for that moment to be.
If you are spending Christmas surrounded by loved ones then be thankful! If you know people who are having a tough time during the holidays then step outside of yourself and BE Christmas for them!
There is a blessing waiting for you if you choose to start trusting God and walking it out with Him, no matter how hard life is hitting you. Today would be a perfect day to start looking for God’s beginning to your Blessing, because He wants you to have a happy ending.
Heartstone Journey wishes you and your family a wonderful Christmas holiday, be blessed!
