A wonderful, inexpensive, lovely idea for Christmas gift giving. Purchase a measuring cup, preferably glass. Tie a ribbon to handle with a card stating this or something like this:
"The measure of a person should be by the content of goodness in their heart.AdvertisementThe amount of love they show and give.
The amount of compassion toward others.
The giving of themselves, even when they don't feel
like there is much to give.
The unselfish acts they perform.
The kindness they emit.
The joy they share.
The measure of a person should be by what is in their heart alone.
And you, my friend, Measure Up!
Thank you for being a true friend!
This Christmas, may your cup runneth over!
I wish you a Truly Blessed Christmas! 2007"
I wrote this and gave these last year to my best lady friends - it was a huge hit! They just loved them and were so very touched. I am so happy to share this with you all!
May God Bless you too!
