This time of year, is a time for reflection, spending time with your loved ones, truly appreciating just how blessed we are, and to celebrate the hope, love, and joy found in Jesus. To some, me included, it may feel like since Covid our world has been turned upside down and things don’t feel as they used to. Although I completely understand the sentiment let’s not forget, as mentioned above, what this time of year is all about. Your family is here and loves you, you have the gift of time to spend and share with them, and your faith continues to carry you through anything even when you couldn’t see it doing so yourself.

So, to my American family and those across the globe, I wish you the merriest and most blessed Christmas possible. Love, laugh, and live as God has blessed us to do. Enjoy the gifts but enjoy the company and love more.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a HAPPY New Year!
