'Tis the Season!

What if!  What if!  What if!  What if … we began each day exclusively with pure thoughts of praise and thanksgiving.  Would our families call 9-1-1?  Would the store clerk eye us with suspicion?  Would the boss think we've landed a better job?  What if ... our feet only gloriously hovered above the carpet with enthusiasm for another day of life from God.  What if ... instead of yawns, snaps, and shouts our children heard echoes of laughter, joy, and singing -- the flavor of the day.  What if ... our jobs were seen as golden opportunities to spread a little sunshine -- the warmth of God's encompassing love.

 

Psalm 100:4 says, "Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name."  'Tis the season to be thankful!  'Tis the season to spread His joy!  'Tis the season to love one another!  Make haste: Enter His Courts ... Be Thankful ... Offer Praise ... Give Thanks to Him ... Praise His Name.  "Let us worship and bow down."
