let's spread some...

ok...just a fore-warning...this will probably be a true post of random thoughts...

that is how my mind has been the last few days...actually weeks...

just random thoughts...that never stop...

and in the mix of it all...is my Heavenly Father...seriously...where would i be without him?

this is a strange time of year for people...although it is a happy time...it is a lonely time for many...it is a time of remembering those who are not here anymore...to celebrate with us...for some...it is a time of holding on to what used to be...to better times...for some it is a time amplified of what they don't have...of being totally alone...with no family...no friends...

in the last month alone...i've listened to many friends...some mourning the loss of a relationship ended...some mourning the death of a family member...some wishing this time would pass...

i think sometimes we could get so into the spirit of Christmas...and forget that this is a really hard time for so many...an what better time to show Christ love? what better time to extend a helping hand...a smile...a kind word...

so i challenge you...while you are out and about today...this week...take a moment to notice those around you...if you are not sure...ask God to point them out to you...the thing is...He will...and then do something...anything...brighten someones day...because beyond the real reason for Christmas...Christ love and birth...isn't it about spreading cheer?

let's spread some...
