Christmas Circus

As I look at this tree I could not help but think that Christmas might seem like a circus at times. Trying to juggle a job, home duties and the demands of this time of season, makes it feel like a tree ring circus.

Everything needs your attention at the same time and it is hard to get it all done. Priorities get displace with the overwhelming attractions of the holiday.

I love Christmas. To keep it from seeming like a circus, I need to pay attention to only one aspect of the holiday. That is focusing on Jesus.

When I keep my thoughts on Jesus I can enjoy each day. This three ring circus becomes one solid ring of Jesus' story of birth, love and grace.
