A Gift of Gods Word

If your Christmas shopping is all done, may I suggest to you a couple of other things?

If your Christmas shopping is NOT all done, may I give you some gift ideas?

Krista and I heard about a Christmas gift plan and we did it for many years.

Something you want.
Something you need.

Something you wear.

Something you read.  

We gave them these gifts and tried to teach them some lessons about gifts.

Sometimes God blesses us with so much more than we need.  We might get something we want.

God does provide for our needs, real needs, in so many different ways.

God provides clothes. See Matthew 6:30.

For the something-to-read gift, we gave them something to help them get into God's Word.

This year consider getting each person in your family something to read that will get them into God's Word.
