Dec 1st, 2022: Gifts

I will be brief in my blogs in December. It is a busy time of the year and it is helpful to be concise.

Today's topic is about gifts. We have been asking questions about gifts we like to give to others. One gift we might consider is the gift of our presence in other people's lives. Being present takes time and effort. It also directs our priorities.

God wants to be present among us; that is the main reason for Christmas. He wants to identify with our human life. There is nothing about us He doesn't know and experience.

Let us be a gift to one another.

Isaiah 7: 14

"Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel."
