At a recent ministers meeting, the group reflected on how we
would redesign Christmas. Celebrating, giving, receiving, sharing, doing,
transforming, teaching, delivering, expecting, caring, loving, living, and
finding were some of the words that identified what we would do. After personal
reflection a few days later, I realized that the words that expressed our collective
redesign of Christmas were words that exemplified the life and ministry of
Jesus. Each word describes a positive and transformative action. Each word when
acted upon can aid in our personal and collective spiritual growth. I wonder, what would happen if we took action
on each of these words daily, weekly or monthly; it would truly become a gift
that keeps on giving long after December 25th has come and gone. I
welcome and challenge you to join me in giving this gift at Christmas and watch
how God provide our increase.
