Hey Royal Kids!

As we have seen in our Thankfulness lesson series, thankfulness is more than just saying "thank you", it's an action. While it's definitely important to tell God "thank you" for all He's done for us we need to show Him we are thankful. We do that by using the gifts He has given us, sharing the good news of salvation, worshipping and praising Him for His many blessings and giving generously of our money, resources and our time. I hope that you are all writing in a journal every day so that you can always remember all that God has done.

Now, we're heading into the Christmas season and while it's fun to unwrap those store bought gifts there are some special gifts that are "Not Sold in Stores". The gifts God gives are better than any wrapped store bought gift that you'll find under the Christmas tree. And unlike those store bought gifts, God's gifts last forever.

"And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:10-11 (KJV)
