Ephesians 2:8 NASB "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God"Another gift! Today's Word shares about another gift we have been given by God!  Having a birthday so close to Christmas, I heard the saying as a young boy "Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas" and then was given two gifts. I couldn't help but think about how God not only gave us His Son but other gifts as well. Gifts like grace, repentance, forgiveness, the Holy Spirit. Actually the list of gifts given to us by God is endless. If you want to read the whole list, open His Word. And once we have received His Gifts, it's time to pass them along to others in simple acts of service.  As a young boy getting gifts, the best part was playing with them with others, gifts are meant to be shared - the question is... who and how are we sharing the gifts given to us by God?! peace, tom
