Why are we taking all this good stuff to other people?
Because it’s a wonderful way to celebrate Christmas. Jesus spent His whole life giving, and it’s very important that we learn to give too.
-
Are we giving to that man, Daddy?
Shhhhh. No, sweetheart, we don’t know that man.
-
Did Jesus only give to people He knew?
Well, I think maybe He sort of knew everybody.
-
Does He know that man?
Yes He does.
-
Sir, I hope you’ll accept this little gift from our family. Merry Christmas.
Thank you. Merry Christmas to you.
-
Giving feels good, doesn’t it, Dad?
Yes it does.
