Give Your Smile Away

Smile without reserve. It’s one gift that you can’t run out of, and it doesn’t cost anything, either. It’s one of the most valuable gifts you have!

Share the Gospel

Earlier this year, we challenged you to tell someone about Jesus; now, during this Christmas season,

we're challenging you to do it again. Evangelism is not a gift, but rather a command from Christ.

You should not go up to someone expecting to say and do everything perfectly, and that is all right.

In 1 Corinthians 2 verses 1-5, Paul writes, “And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming

to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except

Jesus Christ and Him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my

speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of

power, so that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.”

Take on an attitude like Paul’s, share the Gospel to the best of your ability, and leave the results up to God (see also

Romans 9:16).

Dance

There’s nothing like cranking up the music and letting yourself go. Can’t dance? That’s okay; I can’t either. But it’s still a lot of fun. And it's even more fun if you can find someone to do it with you.

Put Your Phone Away

Turn your phone on silent and put it away–not in your pocket or next to you on the couch. Instead, put it where you can’t see or feel it, then go as long as you can without it. Enjoy this time away from the screen; bake something with your siblings, take a walk, read a book, or talk with your mom. You'll be glad you did . . . and might even want to do it again.

Go for a Run

Exercise can not only make you feel good, but it can clear your mind and improve your entire mood, too. Go for a run, or, if you’re like me and really don’t like running, find a good workout on YouTube.

Refill the Soap Bottles

Have you noticed the hand soap running low in the bathroom? Don’t wait for someone else to take care of it . . . refill (or replace) the bottle yourself. If there's no toilet paper, stock that, too.
