Have you
had your JOY JUICE today? Do you have
your Christmas shopping done? (Or have
you even started?) You can always give
the gift of JOY! It doesn’t cost a penny,
but, oh, how it lasts!
It is human nature to like getting new things.
Christmas time is no exception. Most of
us enjoy seeing our name on a package under the Christmas tree. But let’s not
get so caught up in the gifts that we miss the most important thing:
Celebrating the birth of our Savior. Jesus
should always be the focus of our Christmas.
As we share the true meaning of Christmas, may we realize that it’s not
the material gifts which are important.
Here’s an
idea! Why not give Jesus a gift? The gift of your TIME? Read His Word and seek His guidance through
the scriptures. We should spend time in prayer,
praising God & thanking Him for the indescribable gift of Jesus!! (2 Corinthians 9:15)
When our
hearts are in tune with His, then we will be able to see more clearly what is
truly important. Parents, spending time
with your children is a precious gift.
They would much rather have YOU and your attention than any gift that
can be bought!
This
Christmas, set aside time to spend with Jesus and your “someones special”. You
don’t have to spend a lot of money. Just give them your time! This may be your family’s favorite Christmas
gift of all…. A gift wrapped in JOY!
When planning your gift for the special ones in your life, choose
to give them love and joy by simply giving them the precious, valuable gift called
“time”.
