Christmas – an overview

Magnificent, mighty, majestic and mild,
Our God came to earth and was born as a child.
His father a craftsman, his mother a maid
When the Son of God in her arms was first laid.

Heaven rejoiced at the birth of her King
And humble shepherds heard angel choirs sing.
They were led to his birthplace and gazing with awe,
Fell to their knees the new King to adore.

Noble kings from the east came following a star,
Bringing frankincense, gold and myrrh in a jar.
The shepherds so lowly, the magi so proud,
All honoured our Saviour with knees bent and heads bowed.

As the story of Christmas once more is re-told
Nobody needs to be left out in the cold.
All are invited to come to the King,
A penitent heart is all you need bring.

When you have given the gift of your heart,
He’ll wipe out your sin and you’ll get a new start.
This child in the manger lying on straw
Is the King of all kings, so regard him with awe.

For so many Christmas is a time to indulge;
To eat, drink and make merry until their tums bulge.
The real message of Christmas brings love, joy and release.
Give him your heart and you’ll know lasting peace.

Our tree looked a bit better before the cat and toddler. Haha and I used some of the balls to decorate my ugly Christmas sweater. I need to post that. Lol

@Mayflower Your tree looks pretty despite the cat and toddler but your sweater, hmm. :)

Lolol. It was ugly Christmas sweater Sunday. It wasn't really an ugly sweater, so I had to add some balls and ice cycles. Though one of the balls fell under my gas pedal, then brake last night. God sure protected us.

For sure. I guess when you decorate like a Christmas tree, make sure you don't drive with them on.

We had a friend who drove through ever red light on the way home froma meeting where he got filled with the Holy Spirit so I guess God was watching over him too cos he didn't get stopped by the police.
