Holiday time can be very emotional for many of us. I simply want to encourage you beautiful ladies to draw close to your Heavenly Father during this holiday time because it can and will at times pull you down. Your Heavenly Father has surrounded you with strong friendships for a reason - LEAN on them!! Don't ever feel like a burden to your girlfriends because God has blessed you with them!
Two Simply Tips!
My first tip is...Don't Don't Don't walk through these next few weeks alone! You have a Heavenly Father who is with you but He also knows you need physical interaction as well! Reach out to your girlfriends, sister, brother, mom, dad, Aunt, Uncle...who ever God has given you to be that amazing supporter! This time of year can get overwhelming, stressful and emotional all at the same time. Don't try to carry it all by yourself - it CAN NOT be done. It does not mean you are weak...it means we are strong!
My other tip is...don't feel obligated to do everything! Yes we are women who feel we can do everything...guess what we can't!! Let your husband or teenagers or boyfriend or best friend - whoever your HELP ME person is - step in for you. Let them help with the baking, wrapping, shopping (yes I said shopping - they can buy gifts too. This is hard for me because I am a control freak!), cooking, addressing envelops, dropping packages off at the USPS or UPS, cleaning the house....do you get what I'm saying! We CAN NOT do it all! It is hard to let go of control but in the end it will still turn out just fine!
Beautiful ladies listen up...we are not meant to walk through this life alone! Stay connect with your Heavenly Father and lean on the ones who love you the most!
Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!
