Gifts


 The gifts are wrapped.








 They are waiting to be placed beneath the tree.








 

The cookies are baked.




The decorating is complete.



Of all these tasks, the most challenging is finding the perfect gifts to give.

This year as I pondered my Christmas list a thought came.  Why not give what I would like to receive.

Monetarily they have no value but spiritually they are priceless .

So sweet friends I am sending you what I want to unwrap Christmas Day. 

 I hope you will find them waiting under your tree. 

 Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-Control.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a blessed coming New Year!  See you in 2022!

Hugs

Debbie

"On coming to the house they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him.  Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, and of incense, and of myrrh."  Matthew 2:11 (NIV)

  1. What a very special Christmas gift, Debbie, and there's no better gift than all the things you mentioned. I wish that for you too, dear friend. Those look like peanut butter cookies possibly? And I like the angel on your mantel. Your Christmas tree is lovely. Merry Christmas, Debbie. I hope your Christmas week is a jolly one.
