How Prayer Can Enrich the Christmas Season

Dear Friends,

‘Tis the season for crazy shopping, traveling, being with family and friends, over-eating and lots of busyness. So how can we invite God into all of it? How can we make sure that the twelve days of Christmas remain a holy season?

Prayer and thanksgiving can be incorporated into almost anything. Pray intently for those who receive gifts from you. Pray for their health, happiness, and for God's presence in their lives. When you mail a package or card, send up a prayer for the recipient. Offer them your blessing upon their life.

If you have the opportunity to watch someone open a gift that you have given them, tell them how thankful you are that they are in your life. Tell them how much you love them and that no gift can adequately reflect your love for them.

Christ can be invited into many activities. Let him be born in your heart again and again this Christmas season.

And may the blessing of the Christ Child be upon you.

In Christ’s love,

Kate +
