You gorged yourself on Thursday, shopped all day Black Friday, picked up your 10' tree (for $150) on Saturday with your $50,000 SUV, finished buying Galaxy Tablets, designer clothes, flat screens and jewelry on Cyber Monday. You think this is what you've "earned" or what you "deserve" because of your hard work or upbringing. Enjoy the season...but don't forget where your blessings come from. Be humble and give God thanks. The homeless man on the street or single mom hoping she still has food and heat for her children Christmas Eve may not "deserve" their lack any more than you deserve your abundance. Be gracious, be kind, be loving and generous when you can, because tomorrow YOU may be the one facing the holidays with nothing.
