The Giver

(John 3:16)

Two thousand years ago, mankind received a precious gift. God, our creator, gave us His Son because of His great love. He desires us to live with Him when our days here on earth are completed.

God, who holds all of life in His hands, loved us so much He chose to share Himself with us in the form of Jesus.

God breathed life into Adam in the garden. Adam and Eve disobeyed His order. The Heavenly Father then raised up prophets, kings, and judges to deliver His message to the people but mankind didn’t follow the rules. Because of His grace, God sent Jesus to us.

As we proceed through this Advent season, let’s reflect on the giver as well as the gift.
