It's almost Christmas! As someone who plays Christmas music on Thanksgiving, I frequently find that I get extremely caught up in this holiday and everything it proclaims to be about. Yes, as ashamed as I am to say, I get caught up in the glitz of the ornaments, baking treats and how my life will vastly change if that one item I'm dying for will end up underneath our Douglas Fir (this year it's a GoPro).
I always end up realizing that the more and more I focus on solely myself and these materialistic items, obviously the less I focus on what truly matters; helping others.
Somehow, I manage to catch myself in the midst of all this ridiculous inner drama with myself and I wind up watching this video from Hillsong United. I don't know how many people I have shown this to but I love it. It's only a teaser trailer, but it makes such an impact on how you view others, yourself and the treatment of everyone. Every single time I watch this, I wind up speechless and teary. (which is saying a lot if you know me!)
I hope it will make your heart grow three sizes larger like the Grinch and you'll try to view some things differently.
Have the merriest Christmas and grandest New Year!
