Christmas reminds us of the sweetest gift ever given—Jesus Christ. Just like unwrapping a small treat brings joy, unwrapping the story of Christ’s birth brings lasting hope, love, and salvation for everyone.
There’s something simple and joyful about unwrapping a Hershey’s Kiss. It’s small, sweet, and perfectly formed—yet it brings an instant smile. That “little gift” is a beautiful reminder of what Christmas is truly about.
The familiar shape of a Hershey’s Kiss points us to the greatest gift God ever gave: Jesus Christ. God’s love didn’t arrive in a grand or showy way. It came humbly—wrapped in swaddling clothes, as a baby in a manger. In the same way that a tiny chocolate can be a delight, Christ’s birth is a gift that is gentle, personal, and filled with joy.
Even the shiny foil tells part of the story. Its brightness reflects the divine light and glory Jesus brought into a world that so often feels dark or heavy. Every time we unwrap a sweet treat, we can remember the deeper invitation of Christmas: to unwrap love, hope, and salvation—not just for a season, but for eternity.
This Christmas, may we pause to celebrate a gift that is:
- Short and sweet in its humble beginning
- Eternal in its impact
- Meant for everyone
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” — John 3:16
May you and your family unwrap that sweetest gift this season.
