December 24th
It’s a “Celebrate Jesus” Day
LORD, AS WE COME TO THE EVE OF YOUR BIRTHDAY HELP US TO GIVE BIRTH TO A BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU AS WE REMEMBER THIS IS YOUR NIGHT AND NOT SANTA’S. AMEN.
The poet Fred D. Jarvis wrote this poem that I share with you entitled: “Suppose.”
“Suppose it were your birthday
And all your friends would come
And gather round your fireplace
There in your happy home.
They come with smiles and gladness,
And bring their presents, too.
But when they start to share them,
There’s not a one for you.
They give them to each other,
A grand and costly lot.
But for the guest of honor,
They somehow just forgot.
You say such things don’t happen,
Nor should it ever be;
It seems too crude and cruel,
For folks like you and me.
But friend, have you considered
This is just what men do?
Not, of course, to humans,
But of our Lord, it’s true
We celebrate His birthday
With all our pomp and style;
But give to one another
And grieve Him all the while.
“Tis Christ reclaim to honor
At this glad Christmas time;
Don’t spend on friends the dollars
And give Him just a dime.
To give to one another
In deed is very nice;
But best of all to Jesus,
For Him let’s sacrifice.
His cause too long has suffered
By thoughtless, selfish men.
Let’s bring to Christ the first fruits,
And give our best to Him.”
Ok, you got gifts for everybody so what do you have for Jesus? Wise men and women still bring Him gifts. So what are you giving? Hum!
