There's a lot of giving and receiving at Christmas, some of it well thought out, and some based upon the premise that 'it's the thought that counts', but it struck me markedly this year that God's gift to the world was the right one at the right time, and deserves a response, a gift in return. But what do you give to the one who not only has everything but created everything!?
And then I was reminded of that wonderful old carol 'In the bleak midwinter' which is strangely apt this year with the weather in the UK!
What can I give Him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
Yet what I can I give Him: give my heart.
