Find more inspiration and free tools for success at DeniseMira.com Traditions – Celebrations Traditions & Celebrations – What is the true meaning of Christmas and how can your family traditions bring this to light Everything good – every perfect GIFT comes from God. James 1:17 so we organically marinate in this concept – Bible and prayer isn’t a religious exercise.
