What do I really long for... this Christmas? I tried to express it in the poem for the card:
Christmas is the celebration
of a SAVIOUR’S birth.
But the real celebration cannot begin
until He is BORN in our hearts...
And our LIVES REFLECT His life .
When our deeds become more LOVING…
even to those we don’t want to LOVE.
When our words become kinder…
even when we want to push people aside.
When our CHARACTERS are INFUSED
with HIS SPIRIT…
Only then does HIS BIRTH become REAL for us.
May we learn with our hearts
what it means to truly worship Him.
