I know you can think back to the many Christmas mornings when your heart was pounding with expectation as you ran to see the presents under the tree. The thrill of that moment was exhilerating. Once you opened the presents, you could not wait to start using them or wearing them.
This is a morning when many gather around the Christmas tree and open presents. All who are gathered cannot wait to see what someone has given them. However, few take time to recognize My presence with them. I long for those gathered to look up for just one moment to thank Me for the greatest gift I gave them over 2,000 years ago. I died on a tree to give them presents that are eternal - eternal life, forgiveness of sins, righteousness, love, peace, and joy.
This Christmas morning, take time to recognize My presence with you and also to thank Me for those eternal presents I have given you.
JOHN 3:16-17
