Gifts of Love

Today we read the story, The Gift of the Magi. The story was about a husband and wife who both sold their most valuable items to get a gift for the other. Only, the wife sold her long hair to buy a band for her husband’s watch. And the husband sold his watch to buy beautiful combs, for his wife’s hair. While both funny, and a bit sad, this sweet story tells of a selfless love that seeks to bring joy to the hearts of those you love. As we enter this season of giving, I wonder how we will express and show our love to those we love. I give hugs, cards, and gifts as I celebrate Jesus’ birthday with them. I spend time talking with them and listening to their stories of what has been going on in their life and with their families. These are ways I try to show my love to them. How do you express your love?
