3 Gifts to Give This Christmas
Adapted from “Priceless Gifts” (First Presidency Christmas devotional, Dec. 8, 2024), Gospel Library.
Christmas brings a special joy and wonder. No event in the history of the world has had a greater impact than the birth and mission of Jesus Christ. We celebrate His birth in many different ways around the world. But we all seem to have one Christmas tradition in common—giving gifts.
I would like to suggest three gifts each of us can give this Christmas season and throughout our lives. I invite you to:
-
Share your testimony. As you share this precious gift, your own testimony will grow stronger.
-
Forgive someone who has hurt you. In giving this gift, you too will feel peace and healing.
-
Help others feel the love of God through you. As you see others as God sees them, your love for them will grow. You will also feel God’s love in your life.
You will never find these kinds of gifts in any store. They are gifts without a price. They will bring lasting and true joy to both the receiver and the giver.
Gifts I Can Give to Jesus
The Wise Men gave gifts to Jesus Christ, and you can too! On the gift tags, write things you can give to Him this Christmas. Then color the picture.
