God Made a Special Day
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

GOD MADE A SPECIAL DAY


 


We often think of birthdays


With loved ones on our list


And make a special note of such


So that not one is missed


We  go the extra mile


If we're monetarily blessed


To lavish gifts upon them


Which says " you're the best!"


 


Happy are those moments


Enjoying with our friends


And family which are near us


Until the birthday ends


We're made to feel so special


On that chosen day


To celebrate our  entrance


Into the world this way


 


A joy that God has given us


A date, and time, and place


A continual celebration


As part of the human race


Until we leave this birthing


And breathe our final breathe


Birthday wishes follow us


They're with us until death


 


But Jesus "birthday baby"


Was different than the most


Was preordained and witnessed by


Father, Son, and Holy Ghost


A birthday that was "special"


For "He would save the day"


When sin sought to destroy us


"GOD MADE A SPECIAL DAY"

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
