Is holiday anxiety creeping up on you? For most of my past Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year seasons, anxiety has been my unwelcome foe.
As I write this, Thanksgiving is less than a week away. If I don’t ask for God’s help now to handle the oncoming holiday stress, anxiety will overcome me. That’s why I’m digging into my blog archives to find the best posts for handling holiday anxiety, in the hopes they will help you (and me) have a more peaceful holiday season.
As a busy mom, do you believe that Christmas peace is really possible? I know that even if you are a Christian, peace can be far from your reach during busy December. Our enemy loves to distract us with stress and activities, since they can draw us away from our relationship with God.
Today I’m delighted to be sharing about Christmas peace on my friend Karen Friday’s site. She is generously offering a giveaway of my book Christmas Peace for Busy Moms in your choice of one easy step! Now, that’s reason enough to visit her site, but you’ll also find practical tips on how to seek peace at Christmas this year. Here’s a peek at my post, and I hope you’ll head over to read the rest.

Each day in December, read a history of Christmas carols and movies along with a brief devotional. Each day includes a recipe or a craft. I’m looking forward to testing the recipes for lime foot scrub and sugarplum cookies this year.
