CHRISTMAS!!!

CHRISTMAS
Is about
CHRIST
And His Birth
In spite of
His intensely
Miraculous Worth
He chose
To have all of
His beauty,
Uncontainable Power
Heavenly Glory, Light
On a rare, never seen before
Or ever seen again night
Put into a fleshly
Child-like shell
Who would have thought
They would ever have had
Such words to tell!

But such did occur
Done for the human heart
To stir
To grab
Our attention away
From the mundane
Of each and every day
All of the world's
Daily dust
In which we seem
To mistakenly place
So much trust

So let go of all the sparkly lights
For a few seconds
All the man-made delights
Of a secularized season
And meditate upon
God's Holy Son
Leaving all of
Heaven's Glories
To live in a darkened stall
As He willing chose
To answer His Father's call
To sacrifice His Life's Beauty
Knowing the awaiting cruelty
Still, He did it solely,
Only,
Bravely,
Gloriously,
Eternally
To save all of us,
The you and me!!

Imagine!

Imagine

Throne, glistening,
Unapproachable
Glory, brilliant light,
Beauty, colors of infinity

Sitting in Your place
Love, forgiveness
implanted on your face
desperate need at your feet

screaming out your name
transcendent above
this noise, chaos,
darkness, ignorant rebellion

a universe held within
your hand
no longer wishing to
follow your commands

One spirit asks,
You would leave all
This!
Remember their past

We adore you, Lord
Do not leave
We will do anything
Your sovereign will to please

But, this perpetual glory
Cannot be restrained.
I cannot ignore their grief
Their sorrow or their pain

The multitudes acquiesce
And bow
Ready to submit their wills
Left only to guess

So He lays aside, removes
A crown
Glistening, reflecting each
Star, lights which abound

Only in this eternity of
Ecstasy, bliss,
Adoration, worship.
Giving His Father one last
Kiss

One last touch of a
Father’s hand
As they prepare to face the
Agony of this plan

Silence falls, all heaven
Stops
Wondering, hoping
As He bends to drop
Below.

So, with shepherds, beasts
Within a barn’s dirty stall
A Savior releases glory
taking up the saving,
redeeming His creation
from its fall.
