"U" is for 'Unspeakable Gift'

 The word ‘unspeakable’ does not mean to not talk about something, but that that something is so wonderful, there are no words to explain it.  God’s special gift to us is ‘unspeakable’; it is indescribable,  it is amazing; it is beyond our comprehension.  This gift is Jesus, all wrapped up in love.

Of Himself, Jesus said, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked Him and He would have given you living water.” (John 4:10)

Because of God’s wonderful gift, we can have other gifts such as a ‘gift of a relationship with God’.  John 1:12 states that all who receive Him, those who believe in His name, He gives the right to be called the sons and daughters of God.

He also gives the ‘gift of His Grace’.  Ephesians 2:8 says, “For by Grace you have been saved…” We have received the ‘gift of Eternal Life’, as according to Romans 6:23 “but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

One reason I think of God’s gift as being unspeakable, and perhaps part of Paul’s thinking in II Corinthians 9:15, is that it is greater than we can grasp with our finite minds.  Jesus was God, 2nd person in the Trinity, totally God.  Yet in order to become the propitiation for man’s sin, He had to take on a human body.  In doing so He had to become a human being.  Now we have something beyond our imagination, something incredible, beyond words, unspeakable.  He was still God, just as though He had never been man; yet He was man as though He had never been God.

And He did this as a gift to each of us.  “For God so loved the world that He gave (this Unspeakable Gift) His only begotten son, that whosoever believes on Him will have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

So accept Jesus, our ‘Unspeakable and Indescribable Gift’.  He paid the price so that all you have to do is take the gift He offers.  This Gift is Jesus!!
