THE BEST GIFT
by K A GRAAF
I thank God for sending His son, Jesus. As I reflect this morning on what Christmas is all about, I see that it was all about GIVING. For God so loved the world that HE GAVE HIS only son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not die but have everlasting LIFE. - ( John 3: v 16) Jesus GAVE HIS LIFE so we could LIVE. What could I GIVE to God, that would possibly compare to what HE GAVE me
The best gift I could GIVE to God, is a surrendered HEART. There would be nothing that would make the HEAVENLY FATHER smile more on Christmas day, than the gift of a repentant and thankful heart and a heart full of LOVE for HIM. Like the little drummer boy, there's not much I have to offer my King But the value that God sees in a heart that LOVES HIM and WORSHIPS HIM is worth more to HIM, than silver, gold or any other expensive gift. The best gift we could give JESUS, the KING of KINGS and Lord of Lords, is the GIFT of a surrendered HEART There is nothing more, God wants this Christmas, from each and every one of us.
It is a SMALL GIFT to GIVE our GOD, compared to the HUGE GIFT He gave us when HE gave us His Son, JESUS CHRIST. Our hearts may be a small gift, but the value of a HEART given to God, is PRICELESS.
