Life is full of surprises and gifts. Some you work for, other freely given. Some you like, others you love. But what’s really important?
The ones you can’t wait to open with great anticipation? Or maybe the ones just expected.

Today is Christmas Eve and many gifts await your complete attention.
My Dad shared it this way…
THE GIFT
by Terry Cook
You’ve spent long hours shopping friend, to find that perfect gift.
It has to say just how you feel, it should give them a lift.
The mall it is so busy now, what with this time of year.
The Musak plays loud overhead, but is it worth it dear?
You spend more than you really should, use cash and plastic too.
But is it really the price tag, that gives the gift value?
You even wrap it really nice, and on it put a bow.
You want it to be oh so right, you want your love to show.
They say it’s better just to give, than for us to receive.
But if I don’t accept your gift, just how will you believe?
In order for you to be blest, to help you fully live.
Someone must reach out and receive, all of the gifts you give.
So next time someone comes to you, say from the God above.
Don’t shy away or act too proud, accept the gift with love.
REFLECTION ~ What’s really important?
It’s the gift of God gave over two thousand years ago.
“For God so love the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” ~ John 3:16
The best gift is love, God’s love.
And He is extending it to you freely.
How will you open it this year?
With limitations and boundaries. Or with an open heart waiting with great expectations.
What’s really important?
God’s love for you! You are loved.
“Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas!”
