Today’s nativity is an empty gift box that sits among the gifts under our tree each year.
This is a representational gift that serves as a reminder that the best gift of Christmas wasn’t purchased by a human and wrapped in colorful paper under the tree. Perhaps some may think it’s silly to have an empty box under the tree year after year… but that box reminds us that the best gift comes to us over and over and fills our void with love and light, fills us so full it spills out from us to all the world…
Let this reminder come to you this Christmas Eve Morning, that whether you think you have purchased (are receiving) the perfect gift or not, the perfect gift is already yours.
