The Perfect Gift…
Good morning beautiful people, good morning. I look over my presents I carefully purchased for people I love this cold, crispy morning. Presents that I still need to wrap sit under my Christmas tree. I ponder if they will be just right or if they would be part of the Christmas exchange.
My prayer for every person this year is the gift of love. That every person would know how deep, how far, how wide God’s love is for them. This love is not just for a select few that may appear to have it all together but is for everyone that would believe and receive. I have received a lot of gifts throughout my life, but nothing compares to the gift of carrying the light of Christ within the human heart.
God’s love is over the top, mind blowing and life changing. The gift of salvation is for everyone. You can be empty handed today and have the greatest wealth living on the inside of you. That’s good news. Actually, that’s the best news I have ever experienced.
I have had times in my life I have had abundance. I have had times in my life I didn’t know where my next meal would come from. What I have found has changed my life forever. I know it will yours as well.
Let’s Pray:
Father, thank you for grace. Thank you for your great love for us. There is nothing that we can do to earn this. You loved us enough to pay the price, the full price and nothing can be added to it. You said it is finished. John 19:28-30 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I thirst!” Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth. So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.
Father, how do we ever say thank you? We want to worship you both day and night. Never forgetting our brokenness and how you turned our darkness into light. When you said the work was finished, the price has been paid, it’s exactly what you meant.
Father, all across this globe people can have a heart-to-heart talk with you (pray) and receive forgiveness of their past. They can experience life abundantly here on earth and eternal life in heaven. Your love is the best gift ever given and we stop this morning to give thanks. Amen.
Have a blessed day God’s most beautiful people. I hope you received the perfect gift, the one that lives within the human heart. Jesus the gift given in love.
