December 14

We know God's gift through the scripture;

we receive His gift through faith in Christ alone;

we experience His gift through the power of the Holy Spirit.

The gift of God is beyond words because God did what seemed impossible

when He separated us from sin and reconciled us to Himself.

It is beyond words because in Christ

we have been given far more than was lost through sin.

It is beyond words because the new life we have in Christ

fills us with love, joy, and peace that must be experienced to be known.

It is not enough to know about His gift, we must receive Christ,

and enter into this wonderful experience of new life.
