God’s Gift List: Eternal Life

For God so loved the world that He gave His One and Only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16


During the holidays I feel like I sit in traffic for an eternity. Traffic lights seem to stay stuck on STOP forever. A ceaseless parade of cars is always between me and my destination. In the shops an infinite, unbroken, unending line at every checkout.

I know you are getting my point. Yep! Yep! Yep! And that is not even approaching “eternal”, it just seems like it.

Jesus was born as a Gift to us from His Father, so that we can live with God in Heaven forever and ever without end. When we believe Jesus is our Savior and accept God’s Gift of Salvation our timeline becomes time without end in Paradise.

That everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life. John 3:15

Jesus is the gift that comes with an eternal guarantee. The gift that has “NO assembly required and has no missing parts. He is THE PERFECT GIFT. All that is required is accepting it. God even provided the “Operator’s Manual”, which is His Word, the Bible.

Thank You Lord, You are the Perfect Gift Giver.
