Giving gift cards instead of a gift for a birthday or other holiday has become a popular trend in recent years. People enjoy getting them because they can choose whatever they want from the store.
Gift cards often come with expiration dates. Sometimes I will stuff one in my wallet and forget about it. A gift card can be worth $100 one day, and then the next day you might as well throw it in the garbage because it's expired. You've missed the opportunity to spend it!
God's gift of forgiveness is like a gift card that's more valuable than anything we can imagine. He paid for it with His Son's life. God is holding that priceless gift card out to us, waiting for us to take it. However, if we don't accept it and use it, then it's of no value to us.
A gift card is only plastic unless it is redeemed. Don't wait until it's too late.

Romans 6:23 says...
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
