The King has been born--and all the world rejoices--the day has finally come --the day which all have waited for with expectant hearts--His birth has been announced and all the world celebrates. Three wise men made a visit and brought Him gifts from afar--gifts of great wonder--all fit for a king---Gold-Frankincense & Myrrh--treasures from their homes.
If I could take three gifts to lay before his feet--what gifts of great value would I have to offer to a king? I have no great riches--no drum to play a song---it seems I have nothing that is fit to give a king.
If I could kneel before Him, what would I have to offer. It would not seem to matter except to the One to whom I offer the gift. I would kneel and hold out my hands. My hands offered in service for all those in need. The poor and the needy and the sick and the suffering --I offer to serve them all with my hands held out to Him.
While kneeling in His presence, I would offer Him my voice to tell His sweet sweet story of grace. The grace He so freely gave to me--all those years ago. Beginning with His birth in a lowly manager, His gift to all mankind was becoming man who would pay the price for our sin. He was as our sacrifice.
The final gift--would else could I give Him? What treasure do I possess that would please Him and show my great love? My most precious possession-the very core of who I am---I could give Him my heart--the center of who I am. What could please Him more--what could better demonstrate my awe--what could better exhibit my love--than to present Him with my great-great love--all contained within my heart.
11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

ReplyDeleteThere is no rule that dictates we must cater to the indulgent tastes or more affluent means of others. The art of gift giving must come with the desire to please the recipient with the gift, to take pleasure in the selection of the gift, to keep the cost within one's budget and means, and to select a gift that will be admired and used.sterntaufe.space

ReplyDeleteYou should keep a positive attitude, rely on others to assist you with gift selection (there are a lot of folks that are great at choosing gifts) and most importantly think about the season, it is for giving, love and good cheer.http://joululahjas.fi/muut-lahjat/lahjakortti/isalle/
