The Apostle Paul describes Jesus as the unspeakable or indescribable gift in one of his letters:
“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift.”
2 Corinthians 9:15
It is indescribable because there is no other gift as perfect or as valuable as the sacrifice of God’s perfect son for our sins. It is a gift from God and a gift of Grace. It is not given away by law or deeds, it is purely Divine.
This gift is available to anyone and everyone who wants it, but a gift cannot be forced on the recipient, it must be accepted. It is given with no strings attached. It is simply… a gift.
The tradition of giving presents at Christmas time comes from this wonderful and indescribable gift given to us. We show Christ’s likeness the most when we are giving out of pure joy and selfless love.
