John and Staci. I absolutely love the reactions of you both at time stamp around 36:50 where Staci replies “ the perfect gift to show that you love them, you know them, you see them” and John is laughing and resting your head in your hand… made me laugh. It put a little splash of joy in my heart to see you both so real and human and gracious to one another. Thank you, bless you.
Excellent excellent talk. Really needed this. Started out with zero on plate so I could enjoy the beauty of the season and now it’s out of control!!! 🎄🎄☃️. So needed this and the raw honesty and tears!!!!
This year and going forward, I am giving books to every family member on my list. I've told them and invited them to let me know something they've been wanting to read etc... I am a writer and I want my grandchildren to love reading. I asked my daughter if we could introduce a tradition of settling into the living room with a book and hot cocoa, eggnog, and mulled wine and spend an hour reading [and talking about it after]. And she thought that was a great idea! My love language is quality time together and I've always walked in that with family and friends. I live on my social security, so money is tight, but I planned for this and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm giving the married couples a book they can read together and discuss - an idea they all loved as well.
Thank you for reminding us that our blessed hope awaits us with His return…. Thank you for awakening my spirit to what time it is and being about our Fathers business….oh Holy Spirit I welcome you into every area of my life and may I become ever aware of the hour and stay awake so I can fulfill Your Kingdom purpose that You destined for me to fill… thank You for Your grace and mercy and ever-present answer that we need… thank You for Your Word for it is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our pathway….. You are my joy and hope of glory… Merry Christmas everyone!!!
Thank you so much, dearest tribe! This spoke about so many of my christmas-related feelings, all the ghosts of Christmas Past and the ghosts of Christmas future! Thank you so much for your Rich ministry! May God richly bless each one of you and your Ministries and your families! exclamation point
Very encouraging, thank you for sharing❤God bless you all richly🎉I'm encouraged to go to Jesus and involve him more. Also ask him for refreshing new words/verses for the new year🎉such great testimonies from all of you❤thank you and God bless❤❤❤
If I can be honest I’ve been feeling nervous about this Christmas, my little sister and her fiancé are coming over which is bringing so many feelings to the surface, partly because I had a painful breakup at the beginning of this year and I was really hoping that I would still have a significant other by the time someone gets engaged in my family. I’m just bracing my heart for wedding talk and that kind of thing. I wish I could speak excitedly with them about it, but every time I hear about them my heart just crumbles. Thank you that you are all always so honest! This Advent has been a nuclear war in the spirit realm for me ❤
This helped me exhale - this Christmas is looking completely different for many reasons. And, Jesus is still here. Thanks for sharing this.
Beautiful 🙏💞🙏
