The Gift
of Love
For
today in
Bethlehem
a
rescuer
was born
for you.
He is
the Lord
Yahweh,
the
Messiah.
Luke
2:11
Listen!
A virgin
will be
pregnant,
she will
give
birth to
a Son,
and he
will be
known as
“Emmanuel,”
which
means in
Hebrew,
“God
became
one of
us.”
Matthew
1:23
Soon
we will
celebrate
a time
in
history
in which
the very
essence
of our
being
would be
designed
and
modeled.
Christ
is the
greatest
gift
ever
given
and we
know
this to
be true
because
His life
paved
the way
for
Eternal
Life.
He
was born
to you.
He
came to
this
Earth
for you.
He
took the
form of
man for
you.
He
would
endure
the
demise
and
ridicule
of the
cross
for you.
He
laid
down His
life for
you.
He
truly is
the
Messiah
who came
to take
away the
sins of
the
world.
He
indeed
is The
Reason
For This
Season.
We give
because
He gave,
we love
because
He loved
and we
offer
our best
because
He gave
His
best.
There
was no
other
objective
for the
arrival
of
Christ
but to
claim
His
Father’s
creation
and
restore
the
relationship
severed
by the
original
sin
which
occurred
in the
Garden
of Eden.
Yes!
Christ
was born
to you.
His
birth
has
given
you new
life.
His
birth
has
given
you a
second
chance.
His
birth
has
wiped
the
slate
clean.
His
birth
has
provided
the very
outline
as to
how we
should
seek to
live our
days
upon
this
Earth.
There
was a
purpose
to
everything
which
Christ
did
while on
this
EARTH;
today we
choose
to live
our
lives
with
purpose
and to
live on
purpose.
We allow
His love
for us
to be
the
foundation
of every
aspect
of our
lives as
an
example
of who
Christ
is and
what He
has done
for us;
He laid
down His
life for
us.
The
Greatest
Gift
Ever
Given
The
Christmas
season
marks
the
wonderful
time of
the year
when God
demonstrated
the
depths
of His
love for
mankind
by
sending
His very
son to
this
Earth.
This
very
display
of love
not only
gives us
the
definition
of the
word but
also
outlines
the
foundation
of our
lives
and
where we
would be
if it
were not
for the
love of
God.
Matthew
1:23
gives
evidence
to this
season
of
giving
in which
we
exchange
gifts
simply
because
of the
gift
which
God gave
us
through
His
Beloved
Son.
Though
we
didn’t
deserve
such an
act of
grace
and
mercy,
we would
be
blessed
beyond
belief
as we
receive
His gift
of
forgiveness
leading
to
eternal
life.
God
always
had a
plan to
resurrect
the
relationship
between
God and
man and
this
should
be
enough
proof
for us
to trust
Him in
every
area of
our
lives.
There is
a seed
in you
just
like the
seed
that was
planted
in Mary;
this
seed is
your
divine
destiny
and
evidence
of the
conclusion
of this
verse
which
states
God with
us. God
is with
you
through
all the
trials
and
tribulations
you have
faced
and are
facing;
He is
with you
through
the ups
and
downs,
hills
and
valleys.
The
message
for the
man or
woman of
faith
today is
that God
is
birthing
something
in you.
Something
is going
to
manifest
itself
from the
labor
pains
and
experiences
that you
have
endured
through
your
lifetime.
Knowing
God gave
the name
of the
Son to
Mary and
Joseph
before
He came
from the
womb
lets us
know God
has
already
named
the very
blessing
that
will
come
from the
struggles
of your
life.
Jesus
declared
in John
10:10
that He
came to
give
life and
give it
more
abundantly;
the name
of your
child
which
will
come
from
your
struggle
is
PEACE,
the name
of the
child
that
will
come
from
your
intense
labor is
CO-HEIR,
the name
of the
child
that
will
come
forth
from
your
poverty
in
Christ
is
BLESSED
AND
HIGHLY
FAVORED.
There is
a name
which
you will
love to
claim at
the end
of your
trying
days,
and
knowing
there is
an
expected
end
confirms
GOD IS
ALWAYS
WITH US.
As
you
begin
wrapping
your
gifts,
remember
the gift
God
wrapped
in
swaddling
clothes.
When you
place
your
gift
under
the
tree,
remember
the gift
that was
placed
in a
manger.
You have
a gift
to share
with the
world
that
came
over
2,000
years
ago; let
someone
know in
this
season
that
Christ
was born
to save
and pave
the way
to
Eternal
Life.
Victorious
by His
Grace!
