And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3

What is the meaning of a precious person?

beloved; dear; cherished. very costly or valuable. held in high esteem, esp. in moral or spiritual matters. very fastidious or affected, as in speech, manners, etc.(of an object, substance, or resource) of great value; not to be wasted or treated carelessly. 

The word precious is in the Bible approximately 13 times.

When I think of the word precious the lyrics to a song we all have heard since we were children popped into my head.   

“They are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world.” Is this song for just little ones under that magical age of 18?  I know in my heart that He thinks of all of us ... every race, every color from every corner of the world His children.  

And I do believe we are all so precious to Him no matter where you are in this life... No matter what secret things you hold in your heart.. or mind... He will hold you, love you, and wash your slate clean... 

With Christmas just a few days away... Many look forward to a gift exchange from loved ones, many find they behave much like a small child this time of year. 

Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit... Offer us a gift of hope, forgiveness, compassion, and kindness and it is wrapped in the most amazing wrapping. It has the brightest colors. It's called love...Will you exchange your gift with them this Christmas season? 

I know first hand how precious their gift is. I feel it every day.  It's a gift that brings, uncontainable joy, peace in your soul, and love that will last a lifetime and beyond... it wows me.

You might ask but if this is a gift exchange what do I have to give them ?? Will it be precious to them? Will it bring joy to their hearts? What I have to offer Them is so insignificant in comparison. 

They do not ask for gold or precious gems... They get excited when you find time to share your life with Them... They adore you when you give Them your unselfish unbridled love... I personally feel our love feeds Their life source. (see 1 John 4:7-21)

They crave to be precious in our site, every race, every color in every corner of the world... They give the gift of Their Love freely, without boundaries, without qualifying factors... They just ask that you share this gift of Love with your family and friends and beyond... He is the most precious gift we can share!!! 

It’s Him, it’s always Him

“Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” Mark 10:14.

Because you are precious in my eyes and honored, and I love you, Isaiah 43:4-28

How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!

How vast is the sum of them! Psalm 139:17
