Merry Christmas!
One of my favorite gifts ever was a plastic football goal post that I could set up in our yard and kick footballs through it, pretending to be a game-winning college football kicker. No, this was not last Christmas… I was probably eight years old! I would spend hours by myself, having a great time relishing in the glory of the pretend fans and the lit-up scoreboard.
How about you? What’s one of the greatest gifts you’ve received?
Maybe you love to give gifts, or maybe, gift giving is stressful for you because you don’t feel confident in being a great gift-giver. Either way, our Eternal Father rejoices over the gifts we give Him. Reflect with me and consider what gift He wants most from you. Maybe it’s a new spiritual exercise you practice daily. Possibly there’s a sin that you can lay down that he would celebrate. I bet there’s someone who needs love that you could care for and thrill Jesus. What do you think He wants from you?
May we enjoy the gift of Christ’s love and give back to Him out of the generosity He lavishes on us!
I hope to see you Sunday and again on Christmas Eve!
Pastor Zach
