A Prayer to Practice Christmas Cheer All...

Your Daily Prayer
About this episode

This episode of Your Daily Prayer is sponsored by BetterHelp. 

There’s no denying that the Christmas season brings a mixture of emotions; within minutes, we can feel joy, excitement, anxiousness, irritation, and loneliness. But year after year, among the hustle and bustle, I’ve noticed that people are kinder, more patient, and generally in a better mood, which I attribute to the gift of Christmas cheer. - Laura Bailey
