Meditation Thought: “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” (1 Peter 4:10)
Make every day Christmas – giving your gifts in happy anticipation of the recipient’s joy – and receiving in the glow of the love that is part of the gift.
God gives us spiritual gifts – gifts we can then give; and yet still retain. Gifts such as the gift of encouragement or the gift of teaching (see Romans 12:4-9 for a more complete list). Gifts that are like Christmas every day – because they point back to Christ and his love for us.
God has offered each one of us the gift of eternal life with Him, and it is available to every one who will open it.
