Fun Friday – December 9
Its Friday. Wooooohoooooo. We all love Fridays and it’s the Christmas season.
Welcome to a new part of my blog called Fabulous Fun Fridays. This is where I post or try to post fun stuff for your life or interesting things. I just let the blog go where it wants to go.
Since it is the Christmas season and almost everyone is in the mood to have fun, eat, give or shop… why not this year, if you have never done it, think about really giving to someone else this year. I know we say that all the time and your probably thinking I already gave to someone or I have someone in mind, but how about this year…..start in your own backyard. Neighbors. How many of you do not know a neighbor around you. Try making or baking or buying something for one of them. Get to know someone that you do not know. You would be amazed and how many people don’t know their neighbors.
I watched a movie called The Insanity of God. I won’t give it away but you need to watch it. A huge takeaway for me was this phrase “Is He worth it?”
I learned from the documentary that the church in the eastern world lives to tell the lost about Christ and will die for it. They will sacrifice their entire lives and their children for Christ. But, we in the western world will not do that. We don’t live like Jesus is worth it all. The statistics show that the church for the most part in the western world never really tells another person that they meet about Christ and willing to pay the price for telling them about Him. Wow!!!!!
So, if that is you, if you have never really told another person about Christ why not start this Christmas with telling someone about Christ. Ask do they know Him. Share some gift with them. Food, candy, a present, or a card with a smile.
Fun Friday Ideas:
- Be a secret Santa to someone
- Buy a single mom a family dinner this season, grocery store gift card, send a gift basket
- Make a cake for someone and take it over and make coffee and catch up
- If there is lover of books, buy them the first book in series. Get them started on their love and passion of books or get them a bookstore gift card.
- Give a gift card to a clothing store or a mall
- Pay a bill for someone
Is Christ worth it to you this season to help someone else even in some small way. See where you can meet a need. A real need and not with a fruitcake. (nothing against fruit cake, but you get the idea). Christ gave His all. Where can we give to one another?
Merry Christmas!!!!!
