As we navigate this first week of Advent, it’s possible that tempers may be fraying amidst the holiday crush. We may not want to play nice with others, especially if our internal grumble meters are going full speed ahead. We may not necessarily want to contemplate what being love means when we’re splashed with downer negativity from others.
But, here’s the thing about Advent…It’s a good time to spread the love of Christ around.
The kind of love that Jesus has for us is the kind that gives others a lift.
“Love that is put into practice always gives us a lift. Love with its sleeves rolled up, with muscle behind it, love that looks for a need and rushes to meet it, love that does something – that’s the kind of love that ministers most.” Joni Eareckson Tada
grace, peace & LOVE

“Love lifted me, love lifted me. When nothing else could help, love lifted me!”
