I Needn’t Be Sad!

by Karen Van Benschoten, posted in Spirituality
My last post expressed the sadness about experiencing Christmas without my mother.
I have since had a change of heart. God has given me the greatest gift of all – the gift of love, from Him and for others. That is something to celebrate and feel good about.
Christmas is all about this precious gift given to me in the birth of His Son, Jesus Christ. This is what I should be celebrating, not who I am with, where I am, or how many presents I get.
I am not expecting any gifts this year, but I have the greatest gift of all, and that is all that I need.
I needn’t be sad about that!

  2. Life is how we chose to see it. I’m so glad you can feel happy at this time of year. I think when you are religious it must indeed be a very special time. I hope you have a lovely Christmas.
