Personal Lessons
The stores are full of shoppers, hoping to find that perfect gift, and houses are decorated with
Christmas Deco. You can feel it in the air, and hear the excitement in your children's voices.
My kids love this time of year. My concern is do our children truly
know the meaning of Christmas? For them is it giving OR receiving?
Here are some ideas to help teach our
children that the TRUE JOY comes from giving.
1. Visit a Homeless Shelter & Bring a gift
2. Make Christmas Cards and take them to a retirement home.
3. Get a group together and go sing at a old folks home
4. Get a Giving paper from a local mall for a needy child and have your children pick out the gift to give.
5. Help a local food bank gather food .
20 Cans of Wisdom
1 Why should I say I can't when the Bible says I can do all
things through Christ who gives me strength (Philippians
4:13)?
2 Why should I lack when I know that God shall supply all my
needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus
(Philippians 4:19)?
3 Why should I fear when the Bible says God has not given me a
spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2
Timothy 1:7)?
4 Why should I lack faith to fulfill my calling, knowing that
God has allotted to me a measure of faith (Romans 12:3)?
5 Why should I be weak when the Bible says that the Lord is the
strength of my life and that I will display strength and take
action because I know God (Psalm 27:1; Daniel 11:32)?
6 Why should I allow Satan supremacy over my life when He that
is in me is greater than he that is in the world (1 John
4:4)?
7 Why should I accept defeat when the Bible says that God
always leads me in triumph (2 Corinthians 2:14)?
8 Why should I lack wisdom when Christ became wisdom to me from
God and God gives wisdom to me generously when I ask Him for
it (1 Corinthians 1:30; James 1:5)?
9 Why should I be depressed when I can recall to mind God's
lovingkindness, compassion and faithfulness, and have hope
(Lamentations 3:21-23)?
10Why should I worry and fret when I can cast all my anxiety on
Christ who cares for me (1 Peter 5:7)?
11 Why should I ever be in bondage knowing that there is liberty
where the Spirit of the Lord is (2 Corinthians 3:17)?
12 Why should I feel condemned when the Bible says I am not
condemned because I am in Christ (Romans 8:1)?
13 Why should I feel alone when Jesus said He is with me always
and He will never leave me nor forsake me (Matthew 28:20;
Hebrews 13:5)?
14 Why should I feel accursed or that I am the victim of bad
luck when the Bible says that Christ redeemed me from the
curse of the law that I might receive His Spirit (Galatians
3:13, 14)?
15 Why should I be discontented when I, like Paul, can learn to
be content in all my circumstances (Philippians 4:11)?
16 Why should I feel worthless when Christ became sin on my
behalf that I might become the righteousness of God in Him (2
Corinthians 5:21)?
17 Why should I have a persecution complex knowing that nobody
can be against me when God is for me (Romans 8:31)?
18 Why should I be confused when God is the author of peace and
He gives me knowledge through his indwelling Spirit (1
Corinthians 14:33; 2:12)?
19 Why should I feel like a failure when I am a conqueror in all
things through Christ (Romans 8:37)?
20 Why should I let the pressures of life bother me when I can
take courage knowing that Jesus has overcome the world and
its tribulations (John 16:33)?
