Saturday – Open Topic

Reading – Isaiah 9:1-7

Highlight Verse:

“For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭6‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Today I am thankful for holidays.

Between now and the end of the year, I have 6 paid holidays.

I have friends who have already decorated for Christmas.

One of our local Christian radio stations has already started playing Christmas music.

To me, it’s way too early to go full Christmas mode, but I don’t see any problem with anticipating celebrating the birth of Jesus.

After all, Isaiah talked about it 700 years before it happened.

As far as I’m concerned, in December we can talk about Advent and the hope and joy that brings.

For now, I choose to concentrate on being thankful in November.

Do you keep Christmas restricted to December, start decorating in October, or rock it all year? Why?
What are you thankful for today?
