God has gifts for all of us this Advent Season.<\/h3>\n

The first gift we unwrap is Hope.<\/h3>\n

In the promised coming of Jesus we find Hope.<\/h3>\n

That Hope of Christ\u00a0is ours and no one can take it from us.<\/h3>\n

Hallelujah!!<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\t\t\t

The second gift we unwrap is Peace.<\/h3>\n

In Jesus we can have Peace, a Peace that is present in all of our circumstances.<\/h3>\n

Let us trust the Prince of Peace with our hearts and live in his presence.<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>

The third gift we unwrap is Love. The love of God finds its most profound and life-giving expression in the coming of Jesus into the world. His coming reveals the face of God.<\/h3>\n

In our Advent season we remember that this gift of love brings us face to face with the fullness of God\u2019s grace.<\/h3>\n

The fourth\u00a0 gift we unwrap is Joy.<\/h3>\n

No matter where we are, or what our circumstances are, when we come into the presence of God we will find Joy.<\/h3>\n

Joy fills us with laughter, singing, dancing and hopefullness until we overflow.<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>
