Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! - 2 Corinthians 9.15

God’s indescribable gift is Jesus, and when we meet Him, we find Him holding open the door to the treasure house of grace. Entering the rotunda, we’re encircled by golden tables filled with a treasure trove of gifts. Romans 6:23 says, “The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Jesus spoke about how our Father in heaven will give good gifts to those who ask Him (Matthew 7:11). He told us that when we come to Him, we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, who dwells within us (Acts 2:38). Romans 5:17 says we’re given the gift of righteousness to reign in life. Furthermore, the Lord gives us spiritual gifts and abilities to use in serving Him (Romans 12:6).

The Bible says, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” (James 1:17).

Our salvation is an indescribable gift from God, but it’s only the doorway to the countless gifts God wants to bestow on us throughout time and eternity. How rich we are!

But a gift of God, let it be obtained by prayer from Him, by whom alone it can be given. - Augustine
