I was just checking out a couple of my friends blogs and ran across this idea of giving more at Christmas by spending less, on my friend, Julie's page. It really got me thinking. Yes, thinking about Christmas in October, but why not? My friends and I for years have done something at Christmas to give, like to Operation Christmas Child, Angel Tree, or soccer balls to kids over seas that have none. We've done lots of things, but then we always still buy gifts for each other. This year we were sharing how blessed we feel and that we could do some much more blessing of others if we took the money we spend on gifts for each other and gave it away instead or if we spent the time we would spend shopping and wrapping to go help someone in need.
Christmas is only 64 days away!
What are you going to do to make those 64 days more meaningful?
