Can You Be an Angel?
Sigh. I’ve already been complaining this Christmas.
- I can’t think of a good gift to buy my mother-in-law.
- There are too many activities to go to.
- I accidentally bought glitter Christmas cards (what was I thinking?).
It’s easy to be a bearer of bad tidings when people ask: “Are you ready for Christmas?”
Christmas turns into a time of being too busy, striving for too much perfection, and spending too much money.
Where is Jesus?
He is here. But maybe the better questions are:
Where are His messengers? And what messages are they sending about Christmas?

I’m writing today at Do Not Depart about angels (“messengers”). What message are you delivering this Christmas?

This post is such a beautiful reminder, Lisa. One I hope to remember, not only for the Christmas season but all year ’round. We are truly his messengers; His eyes, His voice, His hands, His feet. And, Oh my, I fall for at least one glitter card every year, wondering after I get home, “What was I thinking?” I expect the recipient, of said card, must think upon opening it, “What was she thinking?!!”
Grinning over those glitter cards!
We received one in the mail from a friend just yesterday, and my first thought was, “Where does this come from?” Maybe she’s wondering too…?
“Be an angel…” – the perfect message for us all!
Thank you for the reminder, Lisa 🙂 and Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Such a great reminder! Thanks for sharing with us. Pinned.
