The most precious Christmas gift I ever received was a simple glass jar, which was filled with 365 slips of paper. On each slip of paper was a handwritten note from my husband--one note for each day of the year.
This was my husband's way of expressing his love for me by honoring me with daily "acts of service." For example:
- Note #1 - "I'll give you a backrub today."
- Note #2 - "I'll do the dishes today."
- Note #3 - "I'll take you to the movies."
- Note #4 - "Take a nap--I'll watch the kids."
Neither the jar nor the paper were of any real value, but it truly was "A Gift of Love"--and that made it PRICELESS!!! For you see--the jar contained his heart! (And you simply can't put a "price tag" on love!)
What's in your heart to give as a gift this Christmas? Who do you treasure most in your life?
Matthew 6:21 - For where your treasure is, there will be your heart also.
