Lately I've had a desire to help others somehow this Christmas season. I have yet to figure out how though. Even though sometimes I have bad days and I pray everyday for a better situation, I know that I am fortunate to have all that I have. There are others out there who bear heavier crosses than mine.
I want to help. I want to do something fulfilling. I want to give my time and energy to someone else, someone who needs it more than me. I know there are probably a million things out there that I can do. I guess I just haven't found the right thing yet.
Does anybody have any suggestions? Do you give to someone in a special way around Christmas time?
We are adopting a family for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWe also "adopted" a foster child for Christmas and bought her lots of sweet gifts and clothes.
ReplyDeleteI love that quote!!!! It's from ELF, right?
ReplyDeleteWe have a pretty cool tradition on my dad's side of the family. Every year we draw names, but instead of buying each other a gift, we donate to a charity in their name and get involved with that charity somehow. It is a wayyy better way to spend Christmas, I think!
Adopt a family or an angel from the salvation army tree :)
