Today, we are going to discuss the ten gifts you give your spouse that don't cost any money.
So, first of all, Merry Christmas everyone. This has got to the strangest Christmas in memory for most of us. Our world is kind of upside down right and I think many of us are looking forward to our traditions, our special ways, that we practice at Christmas. Even if things are strange, we can do our best to celebrate something that means so much to us.
Christmas got me thinking about the concept of gifts in a relationship and what kind of gifts we give each other, as husband and wife. What do we "offer" each other that is far more valuable than a sweater or a favourite tool?
And this is what I came up with. Ten gifts that you give your spouse, that don't cost money but are far more valuable than what money can buy. These are gifts we give our spouses and they are also things that our spouses give us, that we can be grateful for.
- The gift of your body.
- The gift of your ear.
- The gift of your service.
- The gift of your acceptance.
- The gift of your kindness.
- The gift of your humour.
- The gift of your intelligence.
- The gift of your growth.
- The gift of your happiness.
- The gift of your faith.

Movie Review from Common Sense Media: https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/the-family-man
The lesson I learned we can learn from this movie about marriage is how the main character started to see the value of relationships.
Today's Scripture verse is Luke 2:11:
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
