The Holiday blues are a thing.

Many of the people we spend life with at work and in our neighborhoods and churches, are hurting. At the Holiday's that hurt is amplified and multiplied. Think about the people you know who have lost a child, a parent, a spouse, or a best friend in the last year. This Thanksgiving and Christmas may mark the first holiday without someone special. This can be a painful time for the ones left behind, they may even feel guilty for moving on and enjoying life.

What about those we know who had terrible hurt, pain, or rejection in their family. The holidays can be a time where they either have to "suck it up" and pretend there isn't a problem or "go it alone" on the days of the year that NOONE wants to be alone.

THERE IS AN ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM – YOU.

As a Christ Follower we know Jesus is the answer to the pain, hurt, and loneliness our friends, coworkers, employees, or bosses are feeling. Jesus is the healer of all that is dark and ugly. Look around. Where will those you work alongside be spending Thanksgiving or Christmas? Do you know? Ask them "How do you spend the Holidays?" "Who do you spend it with?" "What are you going to be doing this year?" "Would you be willing to spend your day with our family?"

Remember, you may be the only Jesus your co-workers, employees, bosses, and friends may ever meet. Invite them to spend life with you this Holiday Season!
