My dear Heavenly Father,
I prayed to You and asked that You change about my financial situation. I realized that I needed to change and be filled with faith. The lack of faith made me fearful and scared, worried and sad. I wanted to change the way I felt and dealt with the situation. I wanted to feel a leap of joy in my heart that our Savior will be born as a Man on Christmas day and I wanted to truly be in awe of that. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for answering my prayer.
Things have been changing all around me. I am seeing things through a different pair of eyes. People with the hands and feet of Jesus Christ are surrounding me and I feel so loved! My family is becoming a nice place to be. For the first time since I can remember, we put the Christmas tree up as a family. We are somehow more patient and tolerant with each other. We seem to quickly turn around a foul mood or anger. We have a bond that we never had before. Goodness is coming from every direction. Every time I turn around, someone is doing something for us. My heart is full with appreciation and gratitude! I feel like I am turning peaceful and that the feeling of happiness is returning.
There are still 5 more days until Christmas and this Christmas is turning up one miracle after another. I understand, maybe for the first time ever, the importance of having a Savior, the one that You sent. He was sent us to free us from sin when we asked for forgiveness and to be our loving advocate with You, my almighty Father! You sent Him here so that we might find our way to You. What a wonderful, beautiful gift! Thank You so much, my Father in Heaven, for loving me so much that You would send us Jesus! Have mercy on me and may I always keep Your spirit and truly live my life as the hands and feet of our dear Lord, Jesus Christ. I pray to you in His name!
Amen
