The Gifts of the Season

As we enjoy the Christmas season, take time to appreciate gifts from God. Give thanks to God for the blessing of friends and family, for God sending His son, and for the hope we have in Him. In giving and receiving presents this year, remember the ultimate gift we have in Jesus.

Scripture

"In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father."

Philippians 2:5-11
