Gifts in human form

Jesus Christ came as our gift in human form. When we start to unwrap Him we discover His love, mercy and grace for us. We will probably never discover all of Him because there's so much more to Him. Jesus is the gift that just keeps on giving. Even after giving His life for us, He keeps on giving us all of who He is.

So like Christ came in human form, so did those around us come. Some were from prayers, some were surprises and some were complicated gifts. Those from prayers brought such joy to our lives, and we knew that they were heaven sent. These are gifts that you treasure and look at with love and thank God every day for this gift. They just make life here on earth so pleasant and joyful.  

The next are these surprise gifts who just popped into our lives so unexpectedly that we kept them wrapped until we knew what to do with them. Then when we unwrapped them we began to see the real reason they were sent, to grow us and groom us.

The other was the complicated gifts that we can certainly do without and would rather return them to sender. These gifts are those people who you can’t understand or those who frustrate the life out of you. The instruction manual is about 100 pages for these, which you don’t have time to read. They make you so crazy that you would rather lock them away in the closet and keep them there until Jesus returns. But when you take the time to get to know them, you discover that they are in your life to make you a better person.

All humans are gifts from God. So next time you wonder why a certain person is in your life, know that they are sent to you for a greater purpose. If you want to be a blessing to someone, be the gift that just keeps giving.

God bless!
