Christmas is coming...hopefully snow will be falling.
The decorations, the smells, the gifts are all because of a loving God who chose to give the greatest gift of all, His own son!
Walk slowly and enjoy each moment! No matter what our circumstances we already have the greatest gift of all.Walk slowly through your home. The hands that touch all the pretty decorations will not be the same next year.
Walk slowly through the stores. It is not about what we
give, but what has been given to us.
Walk slowly through the parties and family traditions. People matter most to God. He died for them.
Walk slowly and look at the beautiful lights, savor the smells, and worship the King who came for us.
Walk Slowly!

Walk Slowly
Today I actually ventured out to shop on the day after Thanksgiving. I don't know if I have ever done this before. I may do it again only because so much was on sale! But in the midst of so many people I walked slowly, looking, waiting, and I was reminded of this little piece I wrote last year at this time.

Yes, it's more calming to walk slowly. Especially if your are thinking those thoughts.
Great post! Thanks for sharing.
Chris, this was beautiful...
I, too, ventured out to just one store, and I must say, it was worth it this year.
But what a great reminder to savor every moment and remember that they are gifts from Him!
