GOD'S WONDERFUL GIFTS

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave us His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.

I expect like me, you're on the look out for the right Christmas presents at the moment and it can be quite a challenge.😊 If you know the person well it's much easier because we know their likes and dislikes.

The lovely thing is God knows us so well, even better than we know ourselves, because He made us, so He knows our needs, our likes and dislikes like no one else does, so His gifts are perfect. 

We're reminded coming up to Christmas that the biggest gift God has given to us all is the gift of His Son Jesus and He gave us the gift of faith so we can believe in Him.

He goes on to say He has given us His righteousness so we can come into His presence and fellowship with Him because He's given us His forgiveness. Along side that He's given us His grace and favour to walk in every day. 

He's given us the victory Jesus won for us over all the works of the devil. Then Jesus went on to say He's given us His peace and given us His joy which will be a fountain of life and strength bubbling up from the inside of us. And that all comes through the gift of the Holy Spirit of God Himself living inside us.

God has given us all so much, but with some gifts we open them up, put them on one side and forget we have them. 

Maybe it's time to take another look at all God has so generously given to us  and say a heartfelt Thank You for all His goodness to us in Jesus. 😊
