With 8 days til Christmas, its time to re-connect. Whether it is someone that you haven't connected with in a long time, or someone who means a lot to you and you feel like re-connecting. Today your activity is to reach into the past and think about a friend, a family member, a co-worker who you have not been in touch with for some time. Call them up, write them an email, go snail mail, send a card, or a small note. Whatever it ends up being, tell them how awesome they are, encourage them, and lift them up. When re-connecting this week think about when we will celebrate when Christ does return. The birth of Jesus, there was quite the celebration, Angels appearing out of the sky and singing... that is probably on the list of freakin amazing. When Jesus returns we will not only get to re-connect with Him, but everyone else who have been apart of our lives, and you will get the spend the rest of eternity remembering and reminiscing about that one year that you counted down til Christmas and talked to each other.
John 15-13
Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
Proverbs 12:26
The godly give good advice to their friends; the wicked lead them astray.
Proverbs 27:17
As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.
Ecclesiastes 4:9–12
Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
