There is something about knowing that this is the one time of the year that no one thinks twice when you show up with a pretty package to show them how much they are loved. And, I must say, I love giving gifts. In fact, I tend to keep a running list of things mentioned throughout the year in people's "wants" to help surprise them with a perfectly thoughtful item. '
Now, I get that it may take a total of 3.7 seconds to rip into a package and unwrap it, but I can't help wanting everything about the token of my love to be presented in a way that says, "I care about you." Therefore, I spent hours wrapping each of the prettiest packages for my loved ones and tucking them under the tree until Christmas arrived.
True, nothing I came up with could even come close to the gift I had received-Jesus Christ.
It is the time of year that I am reminded of how thankful I should be for all of the many, many blessings that have been poured over me and my family. I pray for each of you during this joyous season that you will humbled as you remember the true meaning of Christmas.
And to all a goodnight.
