The Perfect Gift

2 Corinthians 9:15, “Thanks be to God for His inexpressible gift.”

In this verse, Paul is expressing gratitude for God’s gift. The greatest gift we could ever receive. A gift is something that is given freely without any strings attached.

Jesus was God’s indescribable gift of grace that was freely given to us, providing we accept it.

December is the time of year we search to find the perfect gift for others. We go shopping, putting up with crowed parking lots and stores and other shoppers who are also looking for that perfect gift. It can be an overwhelming time. People are not always pleasant and that can ruin the Christmas spirit.

Let’s not forget that the greatest gift we could ever receive is Jesus. He was born to save us from our sins. We celebrate His birth this time of the year, and we should. So let’s remember not to be overwhelmed with others when we are out shopping for that perfect gift, because we have already been given it.

This could not have happened if Jesus wasn’t born and that’s why we celebrate His birth. The perfect gift, let’s share that with everyone this Christmas.
