Simple.

This year at our church we are focusing on simple. Keeping Christmas meaningful, worshipful. Check out the video and website www.adventconspiracy.com
 
But how this works out practically is the challenge. I think it is a matter of perspective. We are still doing gifts with our families, but we are keeping it simple. Stockings, one gift each couple, etc… And I’ve decided to enjoy Christmas shopping, so I try to leave the house with a good attitude and say this is going to be a fun day with Cassie at the mall.  
 
Or take the busyness of going from family thing to family thing, church thing to church thing, work thing to work thing (I know a girl who has 6 Christmas parties at work!) I’ve decided to keep the perspective that I am blessed to be at home this Christmas, with people that I love to be with.  I have people that love me and want to spend time with me…
 
So does my entire lifestyle need to change in order to keep Christmas simple, meaningful, worshipful? I don’t think so. But as I strive to keep a good, joyful, peaceful attitude I am able to experience the Christmas season in a way that is:
Simple….. Meaningful….Worshipful……
 
Merry Christmas everyone! ENJOY DECEMBER!!!
