Message of Christmas

Message of Christmas

 

There’s lots of giving at Christmas

Lovely gifts all ‘round

People seek the perfect one

And get excited when it’s found

We get such joy from giving

To see that sweet surprise

Or just to see appreciation

In each other's eyes

But there’s a message

That’s in Christmas

That may soon be lost

That the reason we have Christmas

Is that it came at a great cost

The baby that some celebrate

Grew into a man

Walked a Godly life

To carry out God’s plan

To show the ultimate sacrifice

Is to give your life for all

And though this will not be asked of us

We can hear the call

To live our lives unselfishly

And give our love to all

About the Poet
I live in Queensland Australia with my husband son and daughter. I love the Lord and it is my passion to express my faith in whatever way He inspires me to. At the moment it's poetry.
