Gift giving takes a lot of work -- at least if you decide to not opt for the fallback gift card option. What makes a present perfect for someone? It has to be something that is what the other person has been wanting, but maybe that they've never even told you out loud. And when they open it, they immediately know how much you care about them because the gift communicates your love.
God is the ultimate gift giver. His gifts are good and perfect. He likes to do it (Matthew 7:11), he knows what our deepest wishes are (1 Peter 1:8-9) and we know by what he gave how much he loves us (John 15:13).
As you scramble to do your last minute shopping and are racking your brain for what to get that person on your list, take a moment to thank God for how much effort he puts into his gift giving, and how well he knows you.
