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

*

Thank you God

It is a hidden treasure
Knowledge of the living God
With it comes understanding
And wisdom to live
 
Thank you, I can understand
What it means to fear you, God
You have promised if I will search
I can know your heart
 
For every good work
What you need is provided
You’ll abound with provision
God’s heart will be seen
The human heart will be drawn
In relationships of love
 
Victory is yours
In what really matters most
When righteousness is pursued
And love is the aim
This is the promise given
You will abound in His Grace
 
Meditations after contemplating Proverbs 2 and II Corinthians 9:8.
