Into a world of the rich and poor, into a world of greed, God, You came down.
A gift, free of charge.
All our money couldn't buy the redemption of our souls.
We celebrate you at Christmas-a time when money is spent.
A time when those who "lack" money wish for more.
We give.
We receive.
We purchase.
It even would cost a couple hundred dollars to purchase a nativity to dosplay outside my house to say "I believe" not in Santa but in hope, redemption, in JESUS. It all costs a lot of money.
But You,Jesus, don't! Thank you for being the free gift, not bought sold or earned but received.
"Freely you have received, freely give."
In the buying, selling and giving the riches of the world that pass away, don't let us neglect love and forgiveness....
Just what you brought when you came down.
Thank you for being free.
You're worth more than any other, and you're absolutely free.
We could never buy You, sell You or deserve You.
But we have You, Everything we know we need; Everything we don't know yet.
