This semester has honestly gone by so fast!!!! I can't believe there's only a month left...right now I feel like I have time (and I do if I use it wisely and don't waste it haha) but really...finals are gonna come so quick! I can't wait for Christmas though!! :D My favourite holiday of the year!

I was actually reflecting and talking with a friend and I realize it's so easy to forget the significance of things. We were looking at John 2 and Jews easily forgot the significance of Passover. We also tend to forget why Remembrance Day is important. What's the significance of Christmas?

When I first think of Christmas I'm so happy! Its a break from school!! I get to see and spend time with all my close friends again. It's a time for friends and family to gather together, to spend time with each other, to have chocolate fondue, to play in the snow, to decorate your house and Christmas tree...only after awhile I remember...right Jesus was born on Christmas day. It should be the first thing that comes when I think of Christmas though and it should be something that i'm excited to celebrate. It just becomes so easy to hide things and disguise the meaning of things that I easily forget God in my everyday life let alone a day to celebrate His birth :/

So my goal for this week is to challenge myself to remember Christ in every decision I have to make...big decisions or small decisions, I will pray about it first :]
