I really enjoyed myself this week. All the Decorating for the Holidays, gets me in the 
Christmas spirit. I am one who is overjoyed at Christmas time. Oh yeah! I’ve been called a Christmas elf before, Many times actually. I love Christmas it is when “Hope” was sent down to us in the form of a baby!
I love to say…
“Merry Christmas!”
Come on… you know… it is the most WONDERFUL time of the year. I had the joy of getting to decorate with my friends at church this year. Our theme this Season is “Unwrapped: The Gifts of Christmas” and we decorated piles of boxes in super shiny foil paper. You know me… I had to customize these boxes with bows, ribbons and bobbles. It looked absolutely beautiful when we were done.
These boxes reflected the light because they were super shiny and sparkly. When people came in on Sunday and saw the lights, tree, wreaths and mountains of presents, it was Christmas contagious. Everyone was feeling the reason for the season.
One of my good friends told me that she loved how the light reflected off of the presents up on stage. This got me thinking. I would love for my light to shine like one of those boxes. I want to be a sparkle of light to someone this Christmas! I want my light to shine towards hope. Not just any hope, but The Hope.
