i love christmas cards
【Celebrating Christmas】2
"Is it snowing outside your window again? When the cold wind blows, I miss my friends far away. I miss you so much when I don't hear from you! I want to borrow a small card and travel across the ocean to convey my thoughts and blessings to you. !”

"Although we can't spend Christmas together, I still spend it with you in my heart! I'll use this card to wish you a blessed Christmas! We'll get together when you get back."
All my friends know that I love Christmas cards more than an exquisite Christmas gift.
The real meaning of Christmas cards is to allow people to receive a card full of caring greetings in the cold winter, so that the recipient of the card can get spiritual comfort and let him know that there are people in the distance who are missing him and waiting for him. "When I first saw this card, I felt so beautiful! I remembered that you always carefully find special, exquisite and elegant cards to send..." This friend has truly won my heart!
a beloved card
A golden bamboo forest is painted on the dark green velvet surface. The bamboo tips are like rays of light radiating from all sides, floating elegantly... I feel like walking into the bamboo forest and hearing the "sound of waves" swaying in the wind.
In the lower right corner of the card, there is a silver square seal engraved with four seal characters: "Congratulations on the New Year!"
My hands gently caressed the soft velvet, slid through the smooth bamboo forest, and stopped on the cold square seal; I felt the chilly air in the cold wind at the end of December; but my heart was ignited with a raging fire. ⋯ ⋯
Opening the inner page of the card, the white paper has turned yellow. I glanced at the short congratulatory message that took up most of the space, and my eyes stayed on the small row of corners on the side: "To my lovely sweet─Blue me" (upside down Look, it’s my blue). I raised my head and smiled affectionately at him! Indulge in the beauty of newlyweds, cherish this card!
It was a week before our anniversary, right before Christmas. He gave me this small and exquisite Christmas card and told me the love story that has always been in his heart.
Eight years ago, when he didn't know me, one day, he was browsing alone in a bookstore and found this small card. He couldn't put it down and immediately bought it home and kept it, determined to leave it to his "other half" in the future. We met at Christmas the following year and he fell in love with me at first sight! However, when I was sixteen years old at that time, how could I have thought about marriage? So, after seven years of long-distance love, this card was handed into my hands on Christmas Eve in the first year of marriage.
He loves bamboo deeply, loves that little card deeply, and loves my son and me even more. Before Christmas after twenty years of marriage, after fighting cancer cells for three weeks, he had to wave goodbye to this world, leaving behind the shivering cold wind, the icy air, and the blazing fire in his heart during Christmas.
a sweet love song
Once upon a time, we were a couple who fasted and chanted Buddha's name, and an enviable fellow practitioner. However, when he was dying, the priest baptized our whole family with water in the hospital ward, and we accepted the salvation of Jesus Christ together. . We are convinced that he has gained eternal life, and we have also gained new life and the hope of seeing each other again!
"Thank you for your continuous messages of comfort and Christmas cards. After reading the testimonies of you and your son, I know that you have all experienced God's love and faithfulness. I believe that it will not only comfort your whole family, but also everyone who is close to you and who reads this article, Be encouraged and reassured. I also believe that one day, God will wipe away our tears, and there will be no more death, no more sorrow, no more crying, no more pain, because the past things have passed away in His greatness. Love, bless you abundantly, and may your writing ministry be a conduit of blessing for all.”
After losing him, I learned to use my own experiences to comfort those who were suffering from the same difficulties, so that they could also receive comfort and encouragement from God.
Thank you, dear Lord, for holding my hand and allowing me to face adversity calmly and move forward with my head held high after losing my beloved! Many things that have been experienced have been wiped out, and the adversity and emotions that cannot be endured have all come back!
Today, many years later, I stared at this beloved card again. I walked into the bamboo forest and heard Su Shi singing the song "Dingfengpo": "...Looking back to the desolate place where I came from, there was no wind or rain or sunshine when I returned." ." As time went by, I also developed such a relieved state of mind. On the long road of life, what we gradually experience are also the wind and rain on the road? After a period of quenching, the pace has already been firmed! Although the wind and rain are unpredictable, we should roar and move slowly!
Read Zephaniah 3:17:“The LORD your God is the One who saves and is mighty in your midst. He will rejoice in you and rejoice in you, he will keep his love for you and he will rejoice over you and shout for joy.”The message of God’s presence is a sweet song of love. When I was going through a low point in my life, God’s love touched me deeply, allowing me to have His joy and peace, His love, and His song in the dark night of life.
