If someone I loved went through #GreatLengths and paid a high price to purchase not just one gift but multiple gifts for me, would it be #bogus to never open the gifts or understand how they work because of 1) a fear of embarrassment because I deemed myself #unworthy to receive the gifts, 2) being too proud to admit that I was never taught how to experience #GoodGifts?
Or would it be cool to just downplay them because I feel like they’re outdated? Or perhaps it’s okay to rationalize or CONvince myself that #Jesus will open the gifts when He’s ready for me to open them. I would argue that He was ready for me to open them the minute He died and resurrected to purchase them for you…I mean, me! 
These aren’t #CHRISTmasGifts we’re talking about people (though #Christ IS involved)! #AskingForAFriend #IHaveAFriendInJesus #WEHaveAFriendInJesus #SpiritualGifts #GiftsofTheHolySpirit #TheNineGiftsOfTheHolyGhost #1Corinthians12_7_11
