Find a way of reaching out to others who are hurting this Christmas. Visit someone in prison or a nursing home. Deliver food baskets to the hungry. Welcome someone who is alone into your home.

Thank you John for these tips from the tree top, this one reminded me to write a young man I know who is in prison to encourage him through this season. I thought I would invite you to check out another one of my blogs titled Feeding a Hungry Soul: http://prayersforfeedingahungrysoul.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI have been practicing the sacred practice of Lectio Divina, and the prayer of Examen over the last year, mixed with some poetry.
