I had visual truth of that tonight as I saw grandaughter Lucy open and put to use the "gift" we sent her. Lucy is so-o-o "into" decorating this year. Her "gift" was a box of "treasures," her daddy's childhood ornaments---handmade, received and collected for many years.
FaceTime with watching Lucy decorate and find just the right place on her tree was the BEST gift!
Lucy shows her favorite of Daddy's ornaments---an aluminum foil star made by him as a pre-schooler.
It is indeed better to give than receive but it's more than an adage, it's scriptural! And....the wording goes even deeper. (Acts 20:35)
Lucy received a gift. I received a blessing!
