Day 18: Gold
Verses: Matthew 2:11
Back Then: Gold has always been a valuable commodity. The gold might have just been an expensive gift, but it might also have been given to highlight Jesus’ deity or kingship.
Today: We don’t get to bring Jesus physical gifts the same way the wise men did. We can give money through the church, but maybe our gifts we give Jesus could be time and attention instead. What could you give Jesus this Christmas to show Him how much He means to you?
Family Talk: What is one of the most meaningful (not most expensive) gifts you have ever received?
Picture Help: You could paint the box gold for the gift of gold, or you could make it a pirate's treasure chest looking box. Positionally, you are nearing the end of elements outside the stable. Bet you can guess the next two elements.
