A Christmas Gift

December 24, 2014

*
I’ve received a gift
It’s the divine grace of faith
I offer myself
My mind will be your workshop
My heart will be your playground

*

My soul flourishes
I will be God’s workmanship
His poetry in this world
Living with a fire
Accessing this deep friendship
Gift available to all

*

Please form Christ in me
I will be engaged in truth
Feelings will not deter me
I accept your love

*

Christmas Truth

*

The littlest child
Hidden in a manger still
I sing “Silent Night”

*

The light of the world
Coming down to bring real joy
Unending love given all
Who will believe it
Historically certain
It is verifiable

*

Please consider this story
Don’t take others word for it
Religious or atheist
You can decide this

*

Consider all things
Get all the information
Respect your judgment
Listen to your broken heart
Listen to the heart of God

*

I’m given a mind
A heart, soul and a body
Time to consider
What is true – what is not true
I have chosen to believe

*

The littlest child
Hidden in a manger
Was the Son of God
I am alive to live it
I am free to share the joy

*

Death has no power
I have chosen where to stand
A resurrection
Has taken place in my soul
Both now and forever more

*
