It's a Wonderful Life

Steep" essentially means soak. In the most basic sense, to steep something means to soak it, which is what we do when we prepare tea.  So, when someone says to steep your tea, all you are doing is preparing a cup of tea.

To steep ourselves in his love, we need to allow ourselves to share it fully with others. We need to gift our presence to others, not just our presents. Instead of purchasing the latest iPhone for your husband, doll for your granddaughter, and makeup for your aunt, consider sharing an experience with them. Spend a quiet afternoon making cookies or snuggling on the couch with hot cocoa and a movie. Or have an active morning sledding on the nearest hill. These are the things that will be remembered years from now.
