Chelsea emphasizes that everyone has a ministry, which is simply living our lives for Christ. When overwhelmed, taking a moment to pray can help us reset and refocus on grace. We must remind ourselves that we are not perfect and that our children also need grace. Living with less means prioritizing our relationship with Jesus over our personal desires. Finding the joy in serving others during the holidays can transform our experiences.
