What kind of music helps you worship God?
Upbeat, easy to sing even for the 'singing impaired'. The energy helps us feel alive through Him, AWAKE, AWARE of His love. Grateful, responsive to His love, presence. Slow, long, difficult = focus on ability to muddle through- no joy in worship or praise
Christian music
When we sing music at church, I like it to be fast and upbeat. Slow music puts me back asleep. I feel like I am praising Jesus more when I am happily singing-quickly.

What do you or your family do to keep Christmas centered around Christ?
One thing we do to keep Christmas centered around Christ is that we put angels on the tree. We sing religious songs and go to church. We put up nativity scenes around our house. Dedicating time to your family around Christmas also makes Jesus happy.
We put up a lot of nativity scenes. On Christmas we usually get three presents, like the wisemen gave three presents to Jesus. On Epiphany, we get gold candy, gum and deodorant which are like the wise men's presents: gold, frankincense and myrrh.
How do you or your family give thanks?

"Thank you, God, for sending the rain!... "
Silent prayers, everyday.
