A Better Christmas

Perfectionism. “We want everything to be just right during the holiday season – picture-perfect decorations, scrumptious feasts, and presents to please all,” notes Estes, “But life often doesn’t go according to plan. Solomon foresaw that many of our designs for Christmas would go awry. “You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail.” (Proverbs 19:21) “God has bigger plans for you than the perfect dinner. That’s why he lets things go wrong. He’s saving your appetite for the perfect eternity. The true holiday magic is reserved for heaven. Every delight down here is a mere taste and teaser.”
