LOVE

The Christmas Story is a story of love. Love is something we all need and want. Love has many wonderful traits. The most notable of these is that love is unselfish in nature. Love desires the best for the one it loves. We find that love will not change with the untidy circumstances of life. True love always stays in character.

The gift of love is evident in the simple story of the birth of Jesus. He came because of His love for me, you, the murderer and the priest, the millionaire and the gangster, the unlovable and the loveable. In His love there is no discrimination, bias, and rejection. Everyone is wanted, and all are seen as worth it! Yes, Jesus’ LOVE is amazing.

Do you think we deserve His love? The answer can be found in how He views His children. The Savior transmits His worth to us. And in so doing, we are transformed in His sight. Jesus’ love sees us as precious jewels shimmering on a satin cloth of royal blue, set apart as rare and priceless gems. He sees what we will become when He the Master stone-cutter has brought out our inner beauty, and as we reflect the precision and wisdom of the Master’s touch. This is His love gift to us.

GOD IS LOVE
