John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
That you and I are alive today is a testimony that God is not done with us. This is a proof that He will bring to pass all His promises to you and I. Thank You Father Lord,in Jesus name. Amen.
Beloved, the power of unconditional love is inestimable. Our text above tells us that God our Father, out of deep heart of love gave us His only son. We His children should do likewise knowing the reason why He gave us His best. He gave His best as a ransome for the world. Such a major event in this season which is the birth of Jesus must be honoured, respected and well celebrated. God knew that if Jesus didn't come to rescue mankind, we will all be lost. What did God do?
He gave us Jesus who is His best.
No body, I mean no man will agree to part with what is so precious to them but God did. Jesus was our sacrificial Lamb, in order for the world not to perish.
So in other words, this season is a season of demonstration of love. If God for the sake of love gave us His only begotten Son Jesus, we have to emulate Him and show love at this time. God gave to a dark perishing world so we His children should emulate Him and give to the helpless and hopeless., eg the poor, widows and widowers indeed, the elderly, the sick, destitute, prisoners and as many as we sense have a need.
You do not have to be rich to give. Give something because, I always believe that no matter what, you are better than someone else. Your giving can be a visit, a little provision, some cash, used wears but in good condition, cooked food or raw foodstuff, etc etc. Whatever will make Your neighbour happy this season, please do it. Let us cultivate the habit of giving, as this pleases God.
Nevertheless it takes a heart of compassion to give. Giving from a pure heart of love is godly. On God's judgement day, GIVING, will be one of the charges that you and I are going to be judged on, according to Matthew 25vs34-36.
Beloved, if God our Father gave the world His best, the least you and I must do is to show that we are His true children by making Love and giving a part of us.
Let us go into our wardrobes, kitchen, pockets, etc and get things out with which to put smiles on the faces of others this season and please God our Father, who created us for His pleasure.
Revelation 4vs11.
God alone is my Source of health and strength.
MEMORY VERSE.
1 John 3:18
My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
PRAYERS.
Father Lord, help me to live a life of compassion that gives without looking back.

Matthew 25vs31-46.
