Tidings of Great Joy
A holiday devotional series entrusted to Carolyn Priester Jones.
There are many things to distract us during the holiday season. If we are not careful, we can be easily led so far away from the One Whose Birthday we celebrate, that we reach the new year ... not with joy, but with emptiness.
The goal of these devotionals is to gently remind us to stay in touch and remain focused day by day on Jesus. I offer it to you in joy. The wonderful thing about Jesus is He is not the reason for just one season. He is the Reason for all seasons! So if you are receiving this after Christmas, read and be blessed. God's Words are Truth for any season!
Why I say these were "entrusted" to me instead of authored by me? Some of you will wonder, did Carolyn Priester Jones write the book or someone else? In fact, I held the pen or pounded the computer keyboard ... but I feel it was God Who gave me the ideas and answered my millions of questions that allowed me to write. Therefore, I feel He authored it ... and trusted me to write it down. To God be the Glory!
If your candle burned a little brighter in this season, please share with me. I'd love to hear from you! Click on the icon below:
