Five-Minute Friday Prompt–“Your”
Every week over at Kate Motaung’s Blog, she invites writers to script out their thoughts in five minutes around a one-word prompt. This week it is “Your.”
How are you preparing for this season ahead? Are you remembering your traditional celebrations and wondering how you will incorporate some of your memorable moments in the season ahead if we are still living under pandemic restrictions?
It’s a question many families are grappling with right now. How will you bring your light and love, and the love of Jesus into the seasons ahead? Your heart aches to have a house overflowing with joy and food, hugs and prayers. Your desire is for a celebration free from the fear of spreading this disease which has a stranglehold on us.
Your celebrations will reflect the light and love of every past season of celebration as you place Jesus in the center of your plans.
Wishing you and yours seasons full of celebration, love, and joy.
From My Heart to Yours,
Janis

Yes, the holidays have crossed my mind…..Thanksgiving……Christmas…..what to do? Where to go? Portland? Alexandria? Or just stay home🤷🏼♀️ It will be a year that we have seen those two sons and grands come the holidays. I think we are sort of ignoring it?? Hmmmmm I’m sure we aren’t the only ones 😉
Hi Patti, It’s a year of decisions that normally we wouldn’t have to think twice about. I just read something from another writer on making decisions and some of it recalled the way Tom and I used to make those decisions involving change in our family. Lay out the pros and cons, study them, take them to the Lord, listen for His direction, make your decision and move forward, knowing that God covers you with His grace if your decision isn’t Perfect. Because we’ve sought His face, His grace is sufficient for us. Thanks to Susan Shipe for reminding me of this habit.
I also know for us, we’ve stepped out in some areas where the virus question hung in the foreground of our decision. But moving forward has brought us freedom and love as we have embraced those we love once again.
Thank you, Patti, for always commenting on my posts. Your presence here lifts my spirits.
From My Heart to Yours,
Janis
