Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you.
Good Morning Abba,
I seem to be a bit tired this morning. I thank You for the night’s rest and even though it didn’t seem long enough, it will be good for the day. You know my exact needs and provide for them.
The Christmas season is right on us Father. I want so much for this year to be different. I don’t want to get spread too thin, stressed to grumpiness, and not enjoy You every moment. Remind me that Christmas is all about You and to take special pleasure knowing You are with me through the days to come. I want my relationship with You to grow over the next few weeks.
So as I set out to prepare for the special day, help me to keep in mind to commit it to You. Remind me to ask if this my activities would please You, to give a person a gift. Then show me the gift I can give them.
You have already gifted me with so much, not only physical gifts, but the gift of Your presence. I am blessed beyond belief to have You in my life!
I love You, Father!
Amen
