Candy Bar

December and that means Christmas. I learned years ago that it is better to give then to receive. The only thing wrong with that is when you give God always gives back. I am not just talking about money here.
Our credit union does fundraising by selling candy bars. A very good candy bar at that. Anyway the other day when I was there I bought five of them. When I left that day the women in the armor truck was outside there and I gave her one. (I gave the other four away also)
Now my next trip back to the credit union as soon as I walked in one of the girls said I have to tell you something. She said the armor truck lady was just here and she said that last time she was here somebody gave her a candy bar. She said it made her week. Not her day but her week.
As Christians we have to be a good witness. Does that mean we have to act like Jesus freaks. No it doesn't. I bought a $1.00 candy bar gave it to someone and it made her week. I didn't stand there and preach to her.
So this Christmas lets remember the little things about giving. It doesn't always cost that much.
I wish you blessings this Christmas. Jesus isn't just Christmas He last all year long.
