A GIFT FOR JESUS

“And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.”

Matthew 2:11 KJV

Someone said “I don’t have anything to give Jesus for His birthday”.  We may not have a lot of money to put in the Christmas offering but we can give of our time and our talents.  There are many people who are going through dark valleys and are brokenhearted.  We can give our time to them.

When we are kind and loving to others, we are being kind and loving to Jesus.  We read in the Bible.  “And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me” (Matthew 25:40).

Happy birthday, Jesus.  I love You with all my heart.  Thank You for loving me and for never leaving me.  If you don’t know what to give, I urge you to open your heart to others and give of your time and talents.  If you know someone who is lonely, make sure that person is not alone on Christmas Day.

The greatest gift you can give Jesus for His birthday is yourself.  If you have never opened the door of your heart and let Jesus come in to be your personal Saviour, give your heart and life to Him.  It will make Him very happy.
