December lists

December is a list making month for me.  By nature a planner, liking known things not surprises, I plan.  Holiday family menus, gifts, ordering online, creating, list making is kinda fun.  Things to attend or decline.

I’m being more mindful this month of building in time for solitude.  Whether a brisk walk, or cozy coffee time, I need time for Scripture, prayer, journaling, and just quiet.

We are celebrating a babe who became a man and took time to listen, talk, connect.  What a gift for me to give others around me this season.

If I accomplish all on my list as a tired grouch, this Christmas time will not be a time that Jesus intends it to be.

Top of the list:  solitude with Jesus.
