2007 - A prayer to my family at Christmas

My dearest family -

My love for you is strong and deep in my heart but it doesn’t always show in my words and actions. I desire nothing but for you to feel the love, peace and joy of God. To be able in your life to have experiences and understanding of the one true God and His love.

This Christmas, I hope can be one where we don’t get caught up in what we get in terms of things but be mindful of the gifts we already have in one another. I hope we can spend memorable moments together encouraging, sharing stories and just being family. I believe there are members of my family who desire these things too but don’t know how to put them into words.

I pray this Christmas they are able to really glimpse YOU LORD; to really see YOU and feel YOU stir in their hearts. I love you, I seek you, I praise you!
