This time of year reminds us that anxiety and grief do not take a vacation. The heaviness associated with expectations, busy schedules and loss all seem to permeate every special occasion, especially at Christmas. Holiday stressors like grief and loss can stop us in our tracks. How do we celebrate when we are so focused on our worry? During the holiday season, it’s easy to get stressed and lose focus of what Christmas is really all about: Jesus. Daily prayer is so important, especially during Christmas because it allows us to keep our minds centered on Jesus. It also gives us an opportunity to express the gratitude we have for all the things God provides, while also allowing us to share all aspects of our lives with Him. If you are feeling lost and not quite sure where to turn, pray these seven Christmas prayers for the holiday season.
