This year we drew names for Christmas on Dec. 29th.
We got our names over a text from our “name giver.”
I drew someone I’ve known for 4 or 5 years now no big deal.
Beth drew someone she has had little to no interaction with.
Its a boyfriend of a “sister”.
So to help us give a good gift the “name giver” told us to list a few things we wanted to help the process.
By comparison, I didn’t ask Beth for a list of Christmas presents she wanted this year.
I live with her and I listened and payed attention to what she said and what she does.
Are you in that kind of a relationship with God?
Do you know what He wants for Christmas from you?
What gift of obedience is God waiting for?
—> Is he waiting for you to have a conversation with someone close to you?
—> Is he waiting on you to finally give that secret or not so secret sin over to him?
—> Is He longing to hear from you more than an hour one day a week?
—> What is God hoping to get from you this Christmas?
—> And will you be faithful enough to give it?
