ROMANS 1:16
What would you do if someone gave you the biggest, most beautiful diamond in the entire world? How about that one gift that you have wanted for so long but know you will never get? What would you do if you actually got it? Of course, you would say thanks, but what would you do with the gift? Would you even consider sticking it in your closet, between mounds of shoes you never wear and the pile of too-short pants you keep forgetting to give away? Probably not. You would display it, show it off, and invite your friends to come and see it. God has given us the best gift ever, the gift of eternal life, and He wants us to share it with people around us. Yet so often we try to hide it, ashamed of what people might think of us and say about us. But truthfully, the gift is not about us and it is not ours to conceal. This gift is all about God reaching out to people. So let’s forget ourselves and our insecurities and let God’s gift be what He intended it to be: the best gift ever.
