I realize I am doing something many hate. I am posting about Christmas before Thanksgiving is done. But it is that time of year again – the time of year that I hate to love and love to hate. I struggle to remain focused on the true meaning of the season of both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Last year I participated in Sarah Markley’s 100 joys, but this year I am going to lead my own Christmas series. I hope to post lists of my own blessings and joys as I did last year, while also thinking about the Christmas season. I will write posts in order to refocus my own Christmas battles and to combat the enemy’s desire to keep me from worshiping our Savior. In doing so, I hope to help you refocus as well, so it will be a combination of a counting of blessings as well as devotions to the real meaning of the season. I don’t seem to be able to stick to it if I say I will post every day, so I’m not going to say that. I hope you will join me in Taking Back Christmas. Feel free to link up, add your own blessings, or leave a note in the comments on how you are Taking Back Christmas.
I do hope to come back tomorrow, counting my blessings. Join me, and be blessed!
