Any relationship is made wonderful with the exchange of gifts. It's nice when a significant other surprises their partner with a gift to show them how much they appreciate them or when you give your mother a gift to thank her for all she has done.
Do you recognize the gifts that you receive from God and do you thank Him for them? There are so many blessings right under our nose that we do not recognize--a new job, the concert of your favorite band, enjoying a film with a friend, a sunset, a cozy sleep, the release of your favorite video game. While we may take these blessing for granted, idolize these blessings without acknowledging the Lord, and even distance these blessings from the Lord fitting these activities we enjoy into a realm where the Lord is not present, it is important that we pay tribute to the Lord for these gifts, and acknowledge and thank the Lord during these times.
It is also important to give gifts to God. Anything can be a gift to God. You can choose to be a caring friend as a way to show God that you care about Him, or you can even use your talents to create a gift...writing, dancing, art, etc.
