As we start the first week in December, we have the tremendous opportunity as Christ-followers to envelop the world with the spirit of joy found in Jesus!
While the world looks at the outward signs of Christmas — the festive ornaments, sparkling lights, and heartfelt traditions, we can choose to showcase the inward joy given to us by the Holy Spirit to bless and cheer those all around us.
Here are four ways you can bring more joy during the first seven days of December as we excitedly look forward to Christmas:
1. Spread some random acts of kindness.
2. Set aside time to connect with others.
3. Love your Neighbors.
4. Practice gratitude.
Click on this link to download your free copy of this handout, entitled Four Ways To Bring Joy This Season. During December 1-8, please take a moment to think of ways to engage in random acts of kindness, better connect with those in your inner and outer circles, give back to your community, and practice gratefulness.
We hope you’ll join us on this journey as we seek ways to experience more joy, peace, love, and gratitude during all of December.
And don’t forget to visit us on Facebook and Instagram and share how you spread more joy to all those around you. We can’t wait to hear your story!
