So this December is already filled with a gigantic to do list! This week alone has a Strings Concerts at the hospital Christmas tree lighting Ceremony, Math tutoring, a Senior ornament hanging program and a family picture day on Friday. Then there is the usual laundry and dishes that are piling up each hour of the day. Not to mention, I have not purchased hardly any gifts for this fast approaching Christmas. To top it off Rosie has her big ear surgery next Thursday out of town. I could honestly get overwhelmed by it all. But yesterday, as I taught my daughter’s high school Sunday school class, I urged the girls to sit still before the Jesus of Christmas and make time for him. The lesson was on worship and the power of God. And how HE is so great and so awesome and so worthy TO BE WORSHIPPED! So today, I did that. I have sat still before Him. I told Him I loved him and praised Him for being in control of it all. All my fears, my dirty house, the surgery and most of all my future and my families future are in his hands. It’s good to know that the God who made time to come to earth as a baby is the same God who is equally willing to make time for me. He calms my spirit gives me peace and joy despite the rat race of life. Yesterday, as I was cleaning my daughter’s unbelievably messy room, I felt like I should stop and make time for her. The room will always be dirty and she was growing. So we made a Lego Christmas tree and a stocking. It felt good to stop and do the important. So today, I urge you to make time for what matters. Make time for family, the important and most all Jesus! He is so very worthy !
