Read 1 John 4:9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
John 3:16 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.
How do we know that God loves us? Discuss how Jesus' birth was how God showed his love for us. God gave us Jesus at Christmas because God loved us so much; what can you give God for Christmas?
These are my children's answers:
Jake: my sins (which I think is a really good answer)
Brooke: gold (I'm glad she has been listening to the Christmas story)
Kate: my Taggie (her prized possession)
We talked about how we could God our hearts at Christmas since what God really wants is for us to live in heaven with him.
