Gifting

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 1 John 4:9 NIV

So I pretty much stink at buying gifts for people....gift giving in general is not one of my finer points. I admit it and hopefully no one will take anything I give them too seriously. But I do it all with a loving heart because I want to show them I care. We show our love by giving of our time, our resources or our feelings.

But no matter how much I love someone I don't know if it would be humanly possible for me to give up my child because I loved them. As a parent I cannot fathom the depth and breadth of this selfless act. God loves us that much. He just does. Accept what he has given in the true spirit in which it was intended...to be forever with him.
