#41 SPIRITUAL GIFTS AND MINISTRIES
Most people love to get gifts. Long ago,about the only time anyone could expect to receive a gift was on their birthday. Today, we find all sorts of reasons and dates to give and receive gifts; Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Easter, Valentine’s Day, Christmas, the list goes on. There is hardly a day in the calendar, where a gift is not expected by someone from someone. God loves to give gifts too, because He loves us. When Jesus finally returned to heaven after His resurrection, He promised He would send us a gift—the Holy Spirit.
