Most everyone is in a generous mood during this season. However, some people have a tendency towards greed and covetousness during this gift giving time. Guard your heart during this special time of the year. I want you to desire the best for everyone. I want you to not have your focus on what gifts you will receive, but on the gifts that you will give.
My Jewish brothers and sisters are celebrating a time of generosity also. It is fitting that My family on Earth (Jew and Gentile) are thinking of others more than themselves. This is the mode of operation that I desire for you to be in all year long.
It truly is more blessed to give than receive. Whenever you esteem a person higher than yourself, you will experience joy, unspeakable and full of glory. That is what this season is all about. As you spend time with Me, rehearse the gifts that I have given you in the past, and look forward with eager anticipation to receiving the gifts I will give you in this coming year. Then offer your body daily to Me as a living sacrifice to be used for My glory. You are the best gift I could ever receive.
PHILIPPIANS 2:3; 1 PETER 1:8
