I may not be very good at giving presents, but I’m trying to become a better giver of thanks to God.

I wish I could be that put together when it comes to shopping. My wife
can shop for everybody at the same time and keep all the gifts in 
order. 

I can never do that. I have to think of one present and I cannot think
of the next one until I purchased the first present. It takes me 
forever to do any kind of Christmas shopping. That is just the way my 
clock ticks. 

Through the years, I have come to a wonderful solution to this problem.
I have one present to buy at Christmas time and that is for my wife. 
All the other presents for all the other members of the family are 
negotiated quite successfully by my wife. 

I sweat and ponder the proper gift to give. I'm not sure if I have ever
given the proper gift, but she always opens it and smiles and says 
“Thank you.” That's all I need. 

I like what David said about giving. “Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty,
give unto the Lord glory and strength. Give unto the Lord the glory due 
unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness” (Psalm 
29:1-2). 

I may not be very good at giving presents, but I'm trying to become a
better giver of thanks to God.
