The season feels rushed and overwhelming—you barely have time to breathe, let alone reflect.
-
The pressure of expectations (from family, traditions, or even yourself) leaves you drained instead of joyful.
-
You long to focus on Jesus, but distractions pull you in every direction.
-
Creative projects sound wonderful, but you don’t know where to start or how to keep them simple.
-
By the time Christmas Day arrives, your heart feels tired instead of full.
