Hi, I am trying to think of a great christmas present to give to my firends, who are teens. and i finally thougt of just putting together cute little baskets of things they like or things that remind me of them and just things they wanted for xmas. (for example: a dvd, body lotion, makeup, a decorated scented candle, and quotes/scripture readings). I want to put in inspirational scripture readings and quotes, but i dont really know any life changing inspirational quotes/scripture readings. i need something that makes you realize who you are as a person, how fortunate you are, why you should keep moving and never quit, something about God being there always, and just altogether inspirational quotes and such. can you please help me? (if you put a scripture reading please put the verses/chapters and where i can find it!) :) thanks soooo much! -Liilli <3 p.s. also, please tell me your opinion on my gift idea and if i should add or take away anything. thanks a bunch!
