Silent Night, Holy Night………..
My hope for you all is that you will take some time this
Christmas season to step away from all of the craziness that comes with this
December month to be silent…and reflect on the Holy birth of Jesus Christ our
Lord and Savior. The greatest and one true miraculous gift from heaven that was
given to all mankind.
I recently found myself in a very strange position where my
principles and priorities were being compromised and things started to become
skewed. I have worked too hard for too many years to finally get my priorities
straight. God first, family second, career third. This very simple order of
living has proven over and over again to be more fruitful, peaceful, and
rewarding when I kept it in balance.
As it was becoming more and more evident that I was sliding into
a dark place because my priorities were free falling out of order, I knew that
I had to make a change. And I did, at a price. But I know that my obedience
will have a heavenly reward much greater than any earthly cost.
I have silenced the distractive noise that was consuming me, and
I am once again allowing God to infuse his peace and his love into my being,
and I am soaking in the true meaning of Christmas. I am now able to place
myself amongst those who were silently looking on, that Holy night, at the most
precious baby, the Christ child. Singing beautiful Christmas songs and praises
that proclaim his glorious Presence in this world!
Have a Very Merry and Blessed Christmas Season!
