His Presents to us? Presence and Sacrifice

I try, as you do, to look at difficulties, let downs or disappointments as an opportunity to be the one to step back & not be first…to replace the hurt with humor & hope & humility…let God do the lifting up so He is the One Lifted up.  I found myself this Christmas thinking of His gift to us…His presence…His sacrifice.   I realized that I was worrying about my presence too much & not my sacrifice enough.  His gift to us?  His cup runneth over...with presence and sacrifice!  Nuff said.  Trace.
