We then that are strong
ought to bear the infirmities of the weak,
and not to please ourselves.
Let every one of us please his neighbour
for his good to edification.
Romans 15:1,2
What a great time of year to put this verse into practice. Helping others when we see a need, and have the means to do so. It's not just about money, it could be a ride to the store, a gift of time - just sitting and visiting with someone can give a huge amount of cheer to lonely people.
This time of year is especially hard for many, depression can easily set in. Some think of loved ones who have passed, or some are saddened that they don't have any family to share Christmas with. Do what you can through this season to lift someone up. Reach out where you see a need.
It's time for some Vintage Christmas Freebies for you. I've picked out two Christmas postcards that I thought you might like. I'll try to post as frequently as I can through the Christmas season. I hope you enjoy these darling graphics. Don't forget to click for a larger size before saving to your computer.
Don't forget about my Scripture Thursday Linky Party. There's still time to participate this week. Link up any project that has scripture from the Bible.
I hope you all have a blessed day. Thank you for stopping by.
A wonderful reminder to think of others this time of year! It is the season of giving, after all! Thank you, Abby, and thank you for the beautiful postcards too!...Nancy :o)
ReplyDeleteHi Abby,
ReplyDeleteI hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. Thank you for bringing up the point of helping those that may be lonely over the holidays. My son is in Basic Military Training now, and the base allowed the Recruits to join local families (in Texas--we live in FL) for a lovely meal and time with civilians! It made him happy, and made me so thankful that he wasn't missing out all together on this holiday.
The post cards are beautiful. Thank you for allowing us to use them. I love both of them!
He IS Able!
