Merry Christmas Eve, And Christmas Party!

Hello Jammers, and Merry Christmas Eve! Graciepopstar91 here! (Why when I said that I suddenly thought of the role call on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse O.O Oh gosh now every time I do that I'm gonna think of "Donald here!" Mmm I'm getting off track)

Currently I'm writing this on Saturday morning, so I guess it's Christmas "Eve Eve" hehe! 

Tomorrow (well today, since this is posting on Christmas Eve), a lot of my family is coming over! We haven't done something like this since 2015, when my nana, grandpa, siblings, aunt, and uncle came over. This year, everyone that was there in 2015 (except my oldest brother) is coming over, and my grandpa on my moms side of the family is also coming over this year!

Honestly, I'm a bit nervous about it all, but I'm sure we'll all have a good time. But uh- my brother kinda brings up interesting subjects

So we shall see

Anyways o.o

Through all the busyness of the holidays, it gets hard to remember the real reason for the season. Getting and giving gifts, and spending time with family is great, but sometimes it gets hard to remember.

Honestly, I find myself so wrapped up in the gifts and stress of it all. But, God needs to be at the center of it all. We wouldn’t even have Christmas if it weren’t for Jesus being born in the manger. That was the best gift we ever could of got. God coming down in human flesh, and saving the world from our sins.

What Christmas has become is crazy. We go from the peaceful night of Jesus being born, to being stressed out with all the gifts we need to buy, all the food we need to make, family coming in.. The list is endless. But through it all, we need to fix our eyes on Jesus, and take time to reflect on the real reason for Christmas.

Here’s todays Bible verse!

Luke 2:9-11

Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord's glory surrounded them. They were terrified, but the angel reassured them. "Don't be afraid!" he said. "I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. The Savior - yes, the Messiah, the Lord - has been born today.

God made you. Uniquely. Beautifully. Intentionally. Purposefully. Wonderfully.

Merry Christmas, everyone!
