HAVE A REINDEER DAY

Hebrews 12:1-2 …And let us run with endurance the race that is set before us., looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith…..

I thought I’d share my little herd of reindeers with you today because they have a message for us this Christmas time.

The two little ones are looking up all the time and they remind me we need to be constantly doing the same. We need to be looking up to Jesus, keeping our eyes on Him and remembering He’s interceding for us all the time, pouring His love and blessings on us each day, leading and guiding us, strengthening our faith in God, healing and restoring us. We have so much to thank Him for.

Then there is the big reindeer at the front. He’s just having a rest with his legs all stretched out like you see some dogs do when they’ve been for a long walk and they just flump down for a while. We can learn a lot from animals because they know when they’ve had enough and need to rest. We do too!😊

Christmas is well known for wearing people out with all the preparations of presents or food and it’s not just at Christmas. Life in general can wear us out if we’re not careful, and we need to be like my reindeer and learn to just rest for a while. Jesus said to come to Him and let Him give us His rest, let Him restore our souls.

So this Christmas remember my little reindeers and what they’re showing us. Remember to keep looking up to the One who holds all thing safely in His strong hands, including you and me. And don’t forget to come to Jesus all through the day with a thankful heart and let Him give you His rest, His peace in the busyness or turmoil, and enjoy each day for what it is. Find the joy in it and praise the Lord for His great goodness to each one of us.

Have a reindeer day every day…..keep looking up and remember to rest.😊
