Christmas, what an interesting time it is. Often so full of excitement and presents, and if you're a church goer, full of the christian story. Things can so often get so out of hand at Christmas time, that all we feel like doing at the end is just taking the world's longest nap! Well this year God has been teaching me about gifts amongst other things. Everywhere I go "Gods gifts" seem to be topic of conversation, if that isn't writing in the sky, I don't know what is!
I have been opened up to the aspect of submission. God has given me a fantastic gift of music, but it was only once I submitted that gift over to God and what he wanted it used for, that it flourished. God gave us the greatest gift anyone one could give, he gave us his son. But I firmly believe it wasn't until some sort of submission was made from some party involved that Jesus' talents and gifts were truly grown to serve the people. The wise men brought gifts to the newborn, but it wasn't until submission into following the star that the gifts were given over, and had a prophetic meaning. From right back when Gods Son was sent into the world, submission of gifts were made. Throughout this realization that has come upon me, I have a greater understanding of why I have been called to serve people through music.
I hope this Christmas God revealed something personal and special to you, that you can reflect on in your life to come, and that you remember the greatest gift that was given to us that we would be given the grace of God. Merry Christmas everyone, and I hope a safe New Year to you all!
Grace and Peace everyone.
