December 17

A lot has gone on this year from the Presidential election to a Pandemic to many other things in between. It’s been a year that has felt a lot like a roller coaster ride with its ups and downs. As we have passed Thanksgiving and quickly approach Christmas, and with many places putting social distancing rules in place, we can’t help but wonder what is going on with life. How quick this year has flown by in some ways, and how slow it has taken to move through 2020 in others. These holidays are important in and of themselves but only in the context of personal meaning and spending them with family as well. This year has certainly taught me more gratitude when I see those that mean the most to me.

I would just encourage us to take a minute to be thankful, no matter how hard life is and how absurd it looks sometimes, to be thankful for the chance to live it. Many have lost their life this year to the virus and other ailments. Many are going to be spending this holiday season alone, not because of social distancing, but because their loved one is no longer with them. It’s sad! So this year reach out with a phone call or card or letter and let someone know they aren’t forgotten. And with all the madness that is taking place in our society lets spread love to others through how we respect them. Above all give thanks to the Lord for the reason for the season.
