The Supreme Gift.

I’ve been given many gifts

And I’ve liked them all just fine.

Some were for my birthday,

Others at Christmas time.

Sometimes I’d send a thank you card

Or a little note to say,

“Can I give you something in return

Somehow to repay?”

But the gift above all others

The best I ever got,

Was not wrapped in paper

With bows tied in a knot.

I found it in the Word one day,

“Take it,” the message clearly said.

There was no way I could repay.

Because this is what I read:

“You cannot buy the gift of life,

To earn it is unknown.

I give it because I love you,

And want you for my own.

You see, I gave my all for you,

I gladly paid the price.”

And it was signed, “With all my love.

Your best friend, Jesus Christ.”

This is from a old friend that lives in the Bahamas, Gus. I have known him since I moved there back 2005. He was part of our Single's Group at Calvary Bible. As tiem went by he got married and now has a lovely family. 

My prayer for all is we remember others during this time.
