A Fitting Present

READ: Matthew 2:11-15

Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God. —Romans 12:1

A little boy was somewhat perplexed by all the exchanging of presents on Christmas morning, for he had been taught in Sunday school that it was the birthday of the Savior. Finally, after a long period of silence, he asked, “Mommy, when are we going to give Jesus His present? I thought it was His birthday!”

Strange, isn’t it, that most of us give gifts to everyone but the One whose birthday we celebrate. A good question we might ask ourselves is this: What am I going to give to the Lord Jesus this Christmas? If you have never trusted in Him as your Savior, the thing He desires most from you is a believing heart. Why not put your faith in Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross so you can be saved from your sins?

If by faith you already know Christ as your Savior, then the most wonderful thing you can do this Christmas is to present to God the one gift He most desires to receive from you—your body (Rom. 12:1).

Our bodies are to be used for God’s purposes. Because we have accepted the gift of salvation from Him, it’s only reasonable that we should present ourselves to the Father. When we give ourselves, we give the one Christmas present that truly fits the occasion! Richard De Haan

What shall I give for Christmas
To Him who gave Himself for me?
To Him I give my life, my love,
For time and for eternity.  —Anon.

Give your all to Christ; He gave His all for you.

Merry Christmas all!

BTW, Spiderboy doesn't know this yet. In addition to the AirSoft pistol Santa brought, Uncle Chris brought a new 22 rifle for Spiderboy. Oh boy, oh boy.

my grandmother (who was NO "pussycat", btw!====> she used to get JAILED frequently for being a SUFFERAGETTE & an OK Teacher's Union organizer!) suggested that to young grrls of our tribe.

a NUMBER of proposals ensued. i can't say IF that CAUSED the proposals/propositions or not, BUT like "chicken soup" it cannot hurt!
