Celebrate

Festive lights, decorations, Christmas-themed parties and concerts are all found around the holiday season. For some, it is the most wonderful time of the year, for others, depression tries to take over. Saying, "Hello," or smiling at someone who's going through a rough patch may be all it takes to turn their gloomy day around. When we take account of the "little things" that could change a person's life, we'll better appreciate God's interest in our own lives. Miracle from on High (A Short Story from A Time to Praise), shifts the attention from depressing circumstances to where it belongs, on Jesus Christ. Even when things don't go our way, be mindful that it is always a time to praise God.
