Waiting is part of life… At times it's beautiful, at times it's challenging, but there is always waiting. As we wait expectantly for Christmas, allow this plan to help prepare your heart for the beautiful gift of God's promise that is to come.

As Christmas approaches, the sights, sounds, and smells of the season fill the air, reminding us of childhood wonder and the excitement of gifts beneath the tree.
