I have given you a present.
It's beautifully wrapped and finished with a golden bow
The box is large and not really of much worth
If left to stand where I placed it.
The paper and bow are just a cover
For you to explore and remove.
As you carefully unwrap the layers, like an onion
So you find each part is connected.
For my friend, this gift has many layers.
Layers of your life
Layers of your joys and pains.
As you get closer to the centre
The layers each become brighter.
When you reach the last layer, it takes your breath away
For my present to you is the greatest gift of all.
My Son -Jesus.
