Any gift that is not given in love, is really no gift at all. It doesn’t matter how big or how expensive it is. The value of a gift is determined by the love that motivates it. Any gift is precious when it’s given by someone who loves us and values us.
And so even though God's gift to us at Christmas came wrapped in swaddling clothes and laying in a manger, it's value is immeasurable because the love that motivated it is immeasurable.
