Sharing the Gift

Some of you have your presents bought and even wrapped and are ready to sit back and enjoy the holidays. Well, not me! I walked from one end of the mall to other several times and thought my feet would surely give out on me and then I thought of the three kings. They traveled for two long and hard years to bring gifts to Jesus. We should remember while we are running around to find the perfect gift for the ones we love that God has already given us the perfect gift of His Son, Jesus

This week, challenge your kids to share some things they can do to remind people that God loves them this Christmas? (Tell people about Jesus’ birth, give gifts to people we love, donate food or money to people who need it, help our parents prepare for Christmas)

Don’t forget to enjoy your holiday Season! Take the time to enjoy the gift God has given you and to share the gift of Jesus with others: spend time with family and time with Jesus!

A subordinate claus.

When you stop believing in Santa Claus is when you start getting clothes for Christmas.

There once was a czar in Russia whose name was Rudolph the Great. He was standing in his house one day with his wife. He looked out the window and saw something happening. He says to his wife, "Look honey. Its raining." She, being the obstinate type, responded, "I don't think so, dear. I think its snowing." But Rudolph knew better. So he says to his wife, "Let's step outside and we'll find out." Lo and behold, they step outside and discover it was, in fact, rain. And Rudolph turns to his wife and replies," I knew it was raining. Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear!"

I did say bad Christmas Humor. Hope you enjoyed.
