Just keep giving, just keep giving, just keep giving...giving...giving
What's up Blue Sushi?
Only 20 more days until Christmas!
Have you made a list of all of the people you want to give a gift to and what you want to give them?
Or...have you made a list of all the things you want to receive?
I challenge you this year to try to give more than you receive. Now you might be saying, I am only 12...I don't have money...right? No worries, be creative and give from your heart. Speaking as a father, gifts from the heart are the best gifts of all.
Here is what you do...for every gift you get or think you will get, you give 2 gifts to people you know. Some ideas for gifts you can give are:
1. A handmade card.
2. Cookies or candy
3. Make a craft or ornament.
4. A letter, (mailed not emailed), especially to your Parents or Grand Parents.
5. Your time.
If you do this, it will impact your life.
This idea of outgiving is not a new idea. You see, there is this man that lived about 2006 years ago. He outgave everyone. He gave His life for you and me. He is the true meaning of Christmas. His name...JESUS!
Paul gives some good advice in Galatians 6:7-10:
"Don't be mislead. Remember that you cannot ignore God and get away with it. You will reap what you sow. Those who live only to satisfy their sinful desires will harvest the consequences of decay and death. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So don't get tired of doing what is good. Don't get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time. Whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone, especially our Christian brothers and sisters."
Remember, just keep giving, just keep giving, just keep giving..giving...giving.
