Advent-Jesus Arrival into the World

Do you struggle to keep your focus on Jesus' birth during Advent?

This year I decided to try harder to keep my eyes on Jesus. Many of you know we're in the process of trying to sell our home in Kentucky so I can join Tim in South Carolina where he took a new job. It would be so easy to stress over the house not selling and lose focus on what this season is all about.

In my quest to focus more on Jesus, a few days ago I attended "Journey to the Manager" presented by Asbury University Equine Center. It was a cold night but well worth attending.



The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. John 1:14 NIV

This week I've also done a little Christmas decorating.



I've turned the TV off and listened to more Christmas CDs.

I also attended the children's Christmas program at church that focused on Jesus' birth. There were shepherds, angels, sheep, stars and kings.



I'd love to hear how you focus on Jesus during these busy days.

  1. Thank you for sharing your lovely photos, Jackie. It's so easy to lose our focus this time of year, especially when you have other major issues going on, like moving. Making a point of having my alone time with God is a must. Hang in there...you'll get that contract!
