--John 3:16(AMP)
The Holiday season may not be a festive, "warm and fuzzy" time for everyone for various reasons. Yet, it is a time for us to remember the birth of our Savior and reflect on the significance. Jesus is the Gift who came to give. Will you receive the Gift? Will you receive what He is offering?
With Christmas just about two weeks away, may I encourage you to read, meditate, and pray on the following scriptures each day?
