In an attempt to turn our attentions and efforts towards others this Christmas season, we focused on making a special card that would bless one person.
So we gathered together around the table and shared in the glistening embellishments and enhanced the Christmas cards intended for that special person.
The message inside bears the love and affection from the bestower of the gift.
Marked with the tiny hands that so lovingly express their hearts.
There is a spoken exchange between them as they share their ideas and thoughts of the gift.
Light hearted conversations are overheard as they chat among themselves as they diligently work with markers, glue and sparkly embellishments.
To be witness of this event, here, sharing in their thoughts, their eagerness as they prepare the gift, exposing themselves as they express the desire of their hearts and the intentions of the gift, was indeed a gift in itself.
Hearing the sweetness of their giggles and playfulness, as their spirits soar and are caught up in the mood and ambiance of the Christmas surroundings.
Everyone participates here in this event, either by way of physical effort or one who is just a spectator, an observer listening in.
I am thankful for the moments I am so fortunate to experience.
The moments that bless my heart more than mere words could express.
The moments that I will tuck away in my heart and revisit many times over.
I am thankful to God for the blessings of each one of these precious ones He has given us. 
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23
The Portion of my Inheritance
