Prayer While Wrapping Gifts

devotional
The prayer

Heavenly Father, I come before you feeling weary. Here I am, surrounded by wrapping paper, ribbons, gifts, and tags, struggling to embrace the essence of giving. It's hard to keep track of which present belongs to whom, and at times, the connection to your Nativity feels distant. Please help me seize this opportunity to reflect on the countless blessings you have placed in my life and the grace you have shown me. Remind me that each present I prepare is a small reflection of the boundless generosity evident in your life, and of the abundant love you graciously bestow upon me, even when I do not deserve it. Allow me to take a moment to feel that joy fill my heart. Thank you for all your gifts. Thank you.Amen.
