The Perfect Gift

Buying Christmas presents isn't always easy. Old people are hard to buy for. They have everything. Rummaging through the toy department becomes a scavenger hunt for age ranges listed on boxes.

Americans have more material possessions than any nation on earth, yet there is no peace in most hearts. They worry and stress out by pressure and deadlines. People need peace more than anything else -- peace in our world, our nation, our families, and in our hearts.

If only I could put peace in a box and wrap it up, but money can't buy peace. It's a gift that only God can give. It's a person, not a thing. You receive peace as a gift from God when you receive the person of The Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The prince of Peace.
