Hustle & Bustle

In all the hustle and bustle of the Holiday Season, we often forget to stop and focus on the real reason for the season. We are so busy with trying to figure out how to fit all the extra shopping and parties, and stuff we buy, it’s easy to lose sight of the real reason for the season.  We spend more time looking for the extra money in the budget to buy all that stuff than spend focusing on why we do it all.

For Christians, it’s a time to reflect on the wonder and majesty of our Creator. No matter what our religious beliefs are, this time of the year is a perfect time to reflect on how we have spent our time and with whom. It is a time to take a look at how we spent money and other resources. It is an opportunity to put a little more effort into making sure we are creating the best reflection of who we are to the people around us. Let’s not get so busy with all the stuff on our lists that we forget to stop and appreciate all the blessings in our lives.
