Sometimes it doesn’t feel like Christmas…..
It’s the first Christmas in Oklahoma in I don’t know how many years with snow on Christmas day. I have my mom, brother and little nephew staying with me and my family. This is the first Christmas in 6 years that I will get to wake up and see my son on Christmas morning and I’m pretty sure I got the right gifts.
With all that you think I would be excited about Christmas this year yet for some reason, I’m not. I can’t even explain how I feel; I’m sure getting into an argument with my mom on Christmas Eve didn’t help. Maybe I’m putting too much pressure on myself about my children understanding that Christmas is about Jesus not getting gifts. I’m not really sure what is and for some reason I went to sleep at midnight and I writing this blog at 3am and I’m wide awake.
See for some of us even thought its Christmas time it just doesn’t feel like it and I think that’s ok. See depending on who you are and what you believe. Will determine what Christmas feels like to you. For me I believe it the time of year in which we stop and our thankful for the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. It’s a time to gather with family and friends and remember the gift God gave to us.
I may not know why for some reason it doesn’t feel like Christmas but I do know though that God is bigger than any pity party I might be having for myself right now. I don’t write this to get anyone down but felt led to do so. I pray that whatever reason I was to write and post this; God use it for his glory.
My prayers go out to you and your family; I hope you have a Merry Christmas.
