I tried to buy some Christmas cards
To send to friends and brothers,
But none told of Christ's precious birth
And I would not buy others.
When I inquired, they told me that
"They only got so many."
I wanted cards that tell His story,
But they did not have any.
As I left the store I thought
"This holiday feels hollow.
How sad to leave Christ out of Christmas",
And tears began to follow.
Jesus is our only hope
For peace, joy and prosperity.
At Christmas we should honor Him
In practice, love and charity.
Christmas..... it's all about Him.
"I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life."
John 8:12 NKJ
