I have a Christmas wish that I would like to ask you all to do.
I know that there is a movie out or was a movie out about people doing three things for someone else that
cannot do anything for you and can’t pay you back. It has to be something that they could not do for
themselves. Think about that for a minute. I’m thinking about a person right now, who if they ever even
thought about doing anything nice for someone else, why I think their brain would immediately fry right in
their head. It is just not something that were used to seeing. Think… Think real hard and tell me when was
the last time you say someone do something nice for someone else? When was the last time that you did
something nice for someone else? Takes a little bit of brain power to even think about it let alone do it.
Now what if we were to get together with our family, all the kids and did a family project for Christmas. All
of us had to think of doing something nice for someone, and we could get the rest of the family to help us
out, if we needed it.
My idea was to give up buying Christmas presents for all of us, and instead, take all that money and go out
and find a family in need. (I don’t think you would have to go to far to find one of those.) Use that money to
get them some food, pay some past due bills they may have, help with some repairs around the house, get
them a Christmas tree, or any other need that they may have. Wow! What a blessing that would be, not only
to them, but to your entire family. What a Christmas present that would be to the kids, and a wonderful
lesson that would place a mark on their hearts that would last a lifetime. Im being blessed right now just
But lets quit thinking about it and, like the Nike ad says, JUST DO IT! After all, we had someone who left us a great example.
Please comment on what you think about this and what kind of ideas you came up with.
God bless all of your efforts, and have a Merry Christmas.
