This video reminded me of how truly blessed I am. I have a beautiful family, a wife that loves me, a nice home, a great job and a treasure trove of friends. It also reminded that this time of the year there are so many people in need. As you prepare to celebrate Christmas with family and friends, look around. Stop for a moment to see if someone you may or may not know has a need. Then help fulfill that need. It may be as simple as listening to their concerns. It might be helping them pay some bills or buying some food. Maybe they need help buying Christmas gifts for their children. If you see a need this Christmas, remember, be someone’s Christmas miracle.
