The world has started already. The rush to spend. The heated desire to buy. The anxiety of finding the right gift. It's a relief to have checked out of that insanity.
I am thankful that Christmas for me and my family is not about gifts. I am thankful that I can rest in the holiday of Thanksgiving without regard to what comes next. I am thankful that the Lord God is my focus for in Him I find refuge, peace, joy, patience and all the other fruits of His Spirit.
Thank You, Jesus, for patiently waiting for me to choose You and then rejoicing when I did. Thank You for loving me even before I loved you back.
