His Christmas Gifts

“And when we give each other Christmas gifts in His name,
let us remember that He has given us the sun and
the moon and the stars, and the earth with its forests and
mountains and oceans - - and all that lives and move upon them.
He has given us all green things and
everything that blossoms and bears fruit and
all that we quarrel about and
all that we have misused -
and to save us from our foolishness,
from all our sins,
He came down to earth and gave us Himself.”
