December is the time of year we gear up toward Christmas. But as you’re reading this, your holiday celebration is starting to wind down. It’s the perfect occasion to look back at God’s wonderful works in 2018 and look ahead toward what God might have for 2019.
One thing we all love about the holidays is the shining glow of lights. They radiate. Hope. Peace. Beauty. Joy. Before the decorations all go back in the boxes, take some time to sit in the darkness with the Christmas lights on. If you don’t have any at home, drive to a neighborhood lit up with glowing grandeur. Savor the brilliance in silence. Let it penetrate your heart — your soul.
