The story of Christmas reminds us of what was, what is, and what is still yet to come. On this Christmas Eve, we light a candle – the candle that represents Jesus, the light of the world. Candles shine brightly in the dark, symbolizing the power of God’s love drawing us along.

Offering hope when we are doubting and fearful.

Giving comfort and peace in our suffering.

And blessing us with grace when we least expect it, but need it most.

If you’re grieving a significant loss during the holidays, do as God does.

Give yourself grace.

I’ve been where you are and know how tough it can be.  It’s hard to show compassion to ourselves.

I hope these simple thoughts, shared with love, help you more easily enter into the unforced rhythms of God’s grace.

How will you give yourself permission to give yourself grace today?
