A gift is something that is given freely and without expecting anything in return. Everyday we wake up is a gift from God. The greatest gift of all was His Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins and bring us back into right standing with Him as our Heavenly Father. When you hear the word gift, many things that you received as a child or even an adult may come to mind. I once received a pink and white tea set for Christmas. I am unsure of how old I was, but the tea set still resonates with me today and I often speak of it being one of my most favorite gifts ever received at Christmas. God has provided me with many other gifts since that time and some of my gifts had difficulty attached to them. These gifts were lessons to bring me into purpose. As I unwrapped these gifts and dealt with pain after pain, I was unsure if the gifts I was receiving were necessary. Though very painful, they were indeed necessary. I am who I am today because of His gift of love. Loving me enough to say no when I wanted Him to say yes. Loving me enough to allow the pain so I could walk in divine purpose. Loving me enough to give me the most indescribable gift of all!!
Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! NKJV
