Episode Summary: 

We're approaching that time of the year again where the stress and overwhelm of the holiday season can take our emphasis off the reason for the season. We're sharing a replay of a popular podcast episode with Marcia Ramsland, the Holiday Pro. She shares how we can get organized and simplify our Christmas holidays. And the good news is, we can start now!

Quotables from the episode:

  • Getting organized is something that can be learned and will save you time, give you focus, and mental clarity.
  • It’s always too early to start preparing until it’s too late to begin! So start your holiday preparations now.
  • Part of what makes our holidays stressful is the fact that we already fill our days 24x7, then have to add more to our schedules for the holidays.
  • Simplifying our holidays and our lives starts with decreasing our expectations.
  • The problem with the poverty in the world is not God’s provision but our distribution. 

 

Scripture References:

  • Proverbs 13:4 “The sluggish crave and have nothing, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.”
  • Proverbs 14:1 “A wise woman builds her home, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.”
  • Ephesians 2:10 “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
