December 2024 Self-Care Bucket List

Hello again friends! Boy am I grateful we are in December already!

I’ve been a bit introspective this month…May I encourage you to make this time of year a time to reflect and give thanks for the many blessings that God has given us. The number one blessing being that He came to earth and lived a holy life and died a criminals death on the cross being without sin or fault, and rose again from the dead defeating death and sin. And we know this is true for there were more than 500 witnesses who saw him and spent time with Him after his burial and resurrection. Will you open your heart to him this Christmas? He loves you and has great plans for your life if you would only put your trust in Him. He is at the door of your heart knocking. Invite Him in. I already have.

There was a time in my life where I thought that God was angry at me, but He isn’t! He loves me and He has run after me all my life. He has taken care of me all my life. I give thanks to God for the privilege to be alive and to get to witness His miracles in my life and in the lives of those around me who also have put their trust in Him.

Oh dear friends, my wish for you this Christmas is that of health, peace and joy, love and faith.

May the Prince of Peace reign in your hearts this December.

Here are some ideas for self-care this December:

1-Spend some time reading the book of Luke in the Bible, Read one chapter a day in the month of December until the 24th (Christmas Eve).

2-Use alone time to pray. Like Jesus did spend time alone in solitary places.

3-Enjoy time with family.

4-Keep up daily routine and daily walking.

5-Read a book this month. (I recommend: Practicing the Way by John Mark Comer)

6-Spend time reflecting with gratitude on this past year and all that we went through.

7-Take one day at a time. Life is not meant to be lived in hurry.

8- Make a Vision Board.

9-Go and enjoy Christmas Lights.

10-Prepare for Christmas Day celebration at home.
