“Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. Let all that you do be done with love. (1 Corinthians 16:13-14)”

Many have read this verse at some time in their walk with Christ, as do many of us struggle with the tall order of faith required to truly live this verse.

With our busy schedules and frequently negative culture, some Christians struggle to find the bravery to shine boldly for Christ. Hebrews 12:1 calls us to lay aside the burdens that hold us back from running the race of life by taking heart in the fellowship of our fellow runners. “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.” 
So the next time you are looking for a gift for a birthday, wedding, anniversary or any other event, take the chance to encourage someone in their walk with Christ. Simple reminders in the home can mean so much to someone having a bad day. Hip Bibles and T-shirts motivate kids and young adults to be excited about the amazing love of Christ, and kitchen accessories are great for the cook in your life. 
Not only will you be able to present them with a beautiful gift, you will enrich their lives with the good news of Christ’s crucifixion on the cross for our sins, which is the ultimate and most important gift of all.
