The Gift

The Gift

By John W. Vander Velden

 

The greatest you can ever receive, is not wrapped with fancy paper tied with a ribbon of silk. It cannot be found on a glass display in a department store. No, the greatest gift is wrapped in swaddling cloths found in a stable, lying in a manger.  And yet nothing -- absolutely nothing -- can compare with that gift.  No other thing you have ever received.  No other thing you could possibly hope for -- has the value of that special gift.

May the birth of Jesus -- the Savior of the world -- be part of your Christmas -- part of your life!
