We do not have a reluctant God. He gives. He give generously. The beauty of His giving is that it is personal. It is personal on His end. He gives us the kingdom, and the kingdom is living under the beautiful reign of the King. Jesus is the reigning king of His kingdom.

The gift God gives us is the personal reign of Jesus in our lives. As a young boy, my favorite memories are centered around my father. We went to the mountains camping. We enjoyed the outdoors of Colorado. Our times sitting around the fire telling stories bring a smile to my face to this day.

When I think of Jesus I smile. Currently His Spirit is in me and someday I will be in His presence. That is the best gift I could ever receive. Thank you God.
