Christmas Season

Hebrews 13:5 

Your conduct must be free from the love of money and you must be content with what you have, for He has said, “I will never leave you and I will never abandon you.”

 

Christmas

 

Oh Jesus!!!! In thought I'll write

some words. My heart's meditation.

The things I should have lived long ago,

You have shown throughout creation.

 

Of Your ways which are so gentle

and  Your patience based on love,

Who is so divine and very kind

and never … never gives up.

 

Your warmth and Your compassion

and Your arms which hold me near,

Your beauty, strength and faithfulness,

which You show me  very clear.

 

Your presence that embraces me

and never lets me go,

even if I stray and wander

and my flesh thinks You don't know.

 

When I'm lost in self  and so

try to close the world from my heart,

You show  me time and time again

that without You all is flawed.

 

And as in thought I vow to change

and I 'll say: I'll do this and that!

As I promise You across my heart

I'll give my "all" that's really sad.

 

You let me stumble … let me fall,

then softly pick me up

and say : "I really only want your heart

in obedience and trust”.

 

Let Me live your vows through you,

let Me be your way,

let Me guide  you the day through,

let Me in to stay.

 

Let My love reach out through you,

let Me be your friend,

let Me be all things you do,

I'll be with you through the end.

 

I love You much … more than I can tell,

and also your fellowman.

This is the season to remind in gift,

that I'm also of "the Great I Am ".

 

Nothing is impossible for me,

and I'm fully yours,

Because I am in you and you in Me,

show others My Open Door.

 

By showing My Love living in you,

reach out to foe and friend.

Please start to-day as time is near,

so very near until the end".
