Do you have little children around you? If you want to really see what the spirit of the season reveals, look through the eyes of a child.
Adults often live alone or in a retirement village somewhere. Retirees have their friends to celebrate the holidays with; however, things are often missed, moments of wonder, unless you have a child in your midst.
If you won't be spending the holidays with children in your own family, visit an orphanage, a boy's club, or a homeless shelter. Bring some presents and a snack. Reveal to someone this season the love of Christ through you. People ask for miracles: Be the miracle and watch the eyes of a small child light up. Your life will light up too, and you'll feel your youth all over again.
Who knows; maybe that little act of kindness will become a friendship that will last all year long bringing moments of joy to both your lives.
God bless you,
Donna
