Shopping for the Holiday Gifts

You have written up your list of who needs a gift for the holidays.  You are trying hard to talk yourself in to getting dressed so you can venture out to buy those gifts.  Wow, this is a lot harder than you thought.  Do you feel like going right back to bed?  The fact that you made the list is a good beginning.  Whatever you choose to do, it is your choice. Today may not be the day or the year to buys gifts.  If you do decide that you want to go out shopping, ask someone to go with you.  You do not have to buy all the gifts today, start with one.  You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. (Philippians 4:13) May the Lord give you the strength you need to do what you have decided to do.  I am praying.
