One Little Christmas Tree
Have a wonderful change in perspective and humble nativity. As I prepare my heart to become a manger, so that Christ may be born again, I realize so much of my past has been denying that, me, a little Christmas tree can light up the world so that some might find their way. I accept today that I withhold the qualities and traits necessary to stand tall enough. If you find that believing that a child was conceived to a virgin Mother challenging, then believing that you can stand tall and light up the world with be just as challenging. I know from experience that my doubt can be powerful and critical perceptions of me can be discouraging. Despite all that keeps me from shining bright, I am.
Feliz Navidad!
