Love—the most valuable gift

Barbara M. Vining

Gift giving is one way that people often express their love. Whatever the gift—whether it's a special object someone selects or makes with care, or a simple act of kindness—the love behind it is what has the real value. It's this love that provides genuine satisfaction to both giver and receiver. To be sure, love is a priceless gift.

Love is a gift that anyone can give; it's free for all to express. And there are plenty of people yearning to receive it.

The first Christmas gift ever given to the world came straight from Love—from divine Love, which is God. It was the pure expression of Love embodied in God's own Son, Christ Jesus.
