Pragmatic Christmas Prayer by (me!) sandra, tvgp
The opportunity to become over-stressed and over-whelmed -to lose sight of the real reason for the season, to confuse priorities, to accumulate long term debt to meet the unrealistic expectations of one day
-very high.
***
so, before I even left the house yesterday, I sat down with Jesus.. telepathically
-k, Jesus..
here is my Christmas budget: /and by 'budget' I of course mean... the amount of credit remaining open on my two credit cards
here is the list of people I want/need/get to buy gifts for: /which would be way longer if I had more money, or more credit.. but, leans, under my current circumstances, towards immediate family
here is the amount of time I have today to get the job done; and the amount of energy
-and, "thank you!" for both by the way... time and energy -and for my family.. and for credit..
etc.
-there will be traffic. -there will be lines. -there will be crowds..
please help. I love you! Happy Birthday! Peace on Earth. Goodwill amen.
***
and, I was centered enough, that every stress was put on hold, and I was able to prioritize correctly! by having lunch and dessert, and a wonderful, good, long in-person visit with my daughter..
and I may not have the best track record when it comes to money.. but the record will show, -when it comes to how/when/where I invest my time and energy..
my R.O.I's are awesome! "Thank You!" Jesus...
and now I will Re-Joyce..
