🎄 Finding Quiet in a Busy Season: Introducing my FREE 2025 Christmas Quiet Time Kit

There’s something about December that holds both incredible beauty and unexpected pressure.

Lights twinkle… calendars fill… expectations rise… and our hearts can so easily drift into overwhelm without us even noticing.

If I’m honest, friend, this time of year often invites me into a deeper reliance on Jesus—not because everything is peaceful, but because everything isn’t. And maybe you’ve felt that too.

I found myself praying recently, “Lord, help me not miss You in the middle of all the noise.”

Out of that simple prayer, something new was born—a way to slow down, breathe, and invite God’s presence into the small corners of each December day.

Today, I’m so excited to share it with you…

✨ The Christmas Quiet Time Kit

This little guide was created with one hope in mind: to help you find a quiet, sacred pause with Jesus this Christmas season.

It’s simple.
It’s peaceful.
It’s doable—even in the busiest month of the year.

Inside you’ll find:

A weekly/daily scripture to guide your heart

A gentle prayer of peace

A simple reflection rhythm you can use anytime

A gratitude prompt

Space to write or journal and even pray over and SURRENDER your TO DO LIST!

A small heart check to help you end the day with intention

It’s one page, beautifully simple, and intentionally crafted to help you create a moment of quiet each day—no matter what your December looks like.

🌟 Why This Matters So Much

When Jesus entered the world, He didn’t come in noise, rush, or chaos.
He came quietly.
Softly.
Hidden in a manger.
Announced to those with listening hearts.

And I believe He still comes to us the same way today—
not forcing His way into our schedules,
but gently inviting us to pause, listen, and rest in His presence.

This Quiet Time Kit is my way of helping you make room for Him.

Room to breathe.
Room to receive.
Room to remember that Emmanuel—God with us—still meets us right where we are.

❤️ A Final Word From My Heart

Friend, you are not meant to rush your way through December.
You are invited to experience it—
to notice God’s whispers,
to savor the simple moments,
to breathe in His peace,
and to remember the miracle that changed everything.

I pray this Quiet Time Kit blesses your heart, your home, and your holidays.
And I pray it helps you make room for the One who came near…
the One who still comes near…
the One who calls you deeply, personally, beautifully—His.

Merry Christmas,
Pat
