Christmas Jars

 
  It all begins with ONE jar. While browsing Christmas books at the bookstore yesterday, I seen this little book with a sparkling Jar on the front that caught my eye. Being a huge fan of Making Love Jars, a simple gift of giving a jar to someone decorated and filled with words of love. I just had to find out what this little book was all about. So as soon as I got home last night I settle in on the couch with this little 122 page book and didn't stop till finished. It's a beautiful story about a young aspiring writer Hope Jensen who receives an anonymous gift, a Christmas jar that leads her on a journey of discovery that so many people will be touched by. Discovering an amazing family with a heart of Gold and giving that will forever change her life and every reader that picks up this book.
   I read this whole book without shedding one tear, not that I didn't feel the urge too, but that I held it back and trust me tears did fall. Before going to bed last night Gunny, who is not a reader asked me what was so great about this little book that I had to devour every word in one day. So I stood beside the bed telling him the heart touching story that I had read earlier in the day. As I was coming to the soul touching finales of the book I couldn't stop crying telling him how it all came together and how beautiful the ending was. I parted from the room to clean up my face and came back to tell him..."So did I tell how good this book was?"
  Please if you see this book you just must pick it up, read it and pass on the beautiful tale to all you know. Word has it, this beautiful Christmas story is to be a Movie. One that I'm sure will become of favorite of all who read and watch it.  And you may just find yourself making a Christmas Jar or a Love Jar as provided in the video below.
   Touch a heart share love where ever you go, L

P.S. there is a second book I'm going to pick up Called "Christmas Jar Reunion" picking up where the first left off. 

Author Jason F. Wright talks about the Idea of a Christmas Jar.
