Angel On A Mission

Image
  Angel  On A Mission I'm an angel on a mission from God; I'm an angel on a mission of love. I rejoice in the heavenly choir; Sparkling white my heavenly attire. I'm practicing for our grand appearance; Which will be a historical occurrence. All angels in line- are ready to go; "Part the clouds! - Go have a glorious show!" The skies are opening for all to see; And we spring forth in God's perfect glory. The clouds are glowing from sky to earth; As we declare the Saviors holy birth. Shepherds shield their eyes and quake to the ground; Rays of light are circling all around. "Fear not'  we cry, we bring you good tidings;" In awe we sing upon our golden wings. We sing, Glory to God in the highest; The shepherds praise the Lord and feel so blest. For the Savior was born this holy day; They gather their sheep and go on their way. We direct them to the star, radiant ; And they go to find the new born infa...

"Very Special Hours"

Image
"Very Special Hours" The stars shone down so softly as You slept upon my breast; The hay, within the manger, made a clean, sweet smelling, nest. The moon beams touched your tiny face. I sat enthralled, enraptured, To realize the grace, this night, Such softness had so captured! I wanted so to tell the earth The things I knew were true. I wanted, too, to hold You close; Keep all away from You. We had waited, all expectant, but were Stunned to see Your precious face! Then, shepherds came and we wondered How they found this little place. I want to make this timeless, Never go on to tomorrow, Just hold You close and claim as mine ~ Excluding future sorrow. For change is quick and I just want To hold this night forever, Never come to days apart or Relationships that sever. ...

Christmas Eyes

Image
 Christmas Eyes by louis gander My mama was a loving spouse who did her very best to keep my father happy and she never did protest - to what my father said and did to add to her abuse - and all the things I saw him do. There wasn't an excuse. My father was a spiteful man who argued quite a lot and it had hurt my mama so that she became distraught... I pulled weeds from her garden and I chopped a lot of wood that heated up our cooking stove. I helped her all I could. As we prepared for Christmas Day and all that was in store, enjoyed, I did, those special times with mama even more. Yes, more than any other month could ever even boast, December was that special time that we enjoyed the most. One cold December morning came when father went to find, a full and perfect Norway Spruce. (I tagged along behind). The woods were vast. There must have been a million evergreen which held a billion snowflakes out in sparkling winter scene. Reflective sunlight shimmered bri...

The Connecticut Tragedy

Image
  The Connecticut Tragedy No words can express the pain of losing a child through violence. The trauma, the heartbreak, the brokenness and the anger. To never hear your child's laugh again, to never be able to hug them or comfort them. To live a lifetime without them would be the most unbearable reality to have to face. --------- Lord, comfort the victims of the Connecticut tragedy. Let their hearts know that their children are held in your loving arms. Protect the children of our country and turn our nations heart back to you. We know that this life is only a vapor and we will see these dear children again. Lord, protect our children from the influences of this world that lead to this kind of violence. Shelter the innocent heart of our children. ------ My church and my family will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Our hearts a sorrowful for all the victims of this horrific crime. November 15th, 2012 S...

The Star of Christmas Is Shining

Image
   The Star of Christmas Is Shining The star of Christmas is shining; It's shining for all to see. Follow it's  light to the Savior; Find Him, in faith bow the knee. He's no longer in a manger; Nor upon a cruel tree. Death could not keep Him in a grave; His love won eternally. A Christmas wreath hangs from the cross; A bow on the manger bed. An evergreen tree is now standing; Below the star up ahead. In Jesus we live forever; Our sins are all washed away. God gave us a gift from heaven; That astounding Christmas day. The star of Christmas is shining; From pages of grace and truth. The greatest gift is ever given; Was written in love for you.

A Present Sent With Love

Image
    A Present Sent With Love   Jesus was the baby; Born on Christmas day. He would one day grow up; And take our sins away.   Jesus was the baby; Sent from God above. Heavens Christmas present; A present sent with love.   Jesus was the baby; Held in Mary's arms. Laid in a manger bed; And kept from all harm.   Jesus was the baby; Underneath the star, Worshipped by shepherds, And Kings from afar.   Jesus was the baby; Sent from God above.

Come On Little Children

Image
Come On Little Children Come on little children, let's praise the name of Jesus; Let's all wish Him a merry Christmas. Sing halleluiah, giving Him all the glory; As we honor the Christmas story. He came to this earth as a little tiny baby; He was born to the virgin, Mary. She rocked Him and held Him with motherly affection; He would one day bring us redemption. She rejoiced within her heart , She held Emanuel; This is why we sing, Noel, Noel. For God so love the world that He gave His Son; His only begotten precious Son. Come on little children, let's praise the name of Jesus; Let's all wish Him a merry Christmas. Sing halleluiah, giving Him all the glory; As we honor the Christmas story. Shepherds watched the flocks in the quietness of the night; Angels appeared rejoicing in light. Stunning angels and  glorious singing filled the air; Announcing the birth of our Savior. They gathered the sheep and went to find the promised child; They found Him wit...

"The Main Event"

Image
    "The Main Event"     by Leslie Rummel It's not about a Christmas tree Or lights that shimmer so… It's all about the Main Event That happened long ago! It's not about Black Friday Or the dollars that we save… It's all about a Baby Boy The gift to us God gave! It's not about the presents That give our spirits a lift… It's all about the Father Who sent the perfect gift!!! It's not about receiving things With monetary worth… It's all about an infant Who brings hope to all the Earth! It's not about St. Nicholas Or the good deeds that we do… It's all about The Promised One Who came to Earth anew! It's not about adorning trees With trinkets on each limb… It's all about His strong desire For us to worship Him! It's not about the carolers Or the melodies that they sing... It's all about the One who saves, Who's Christ the Lord and King! It's not about long Shopping line...

Nativity Christmas 12-8-12

Image
  Nativity Christmas 12-8-12   Does someone call as snowflakes fall upon my window sill? There comes a sleigh. The horses neigh, in spirit of goodwill. There's not a breeze. My mind's at ease. They bid me, "Come" they say. So I step out. There is no doubt - that this is Christmas Day. I hop aboard and ride on toward - a town that's splashed with sights. I look ahead at green and red. I love those Christmas lights. The air is crisp. I see a wisp - on front of horses' mane - that bounce with pep at every step. The horses do not wane. --- Hear sleigh bells chime throughout that time until I got to town - And hooves had clopped until they stopped as I arrived downtown. Nativity... I smiled with glee - heard carols in the air. The shepherds spied. The three Magi saw Jesus sleeping there. A camel knelt. In joy they dwelt - ...

Because Our God So Loved The World

Image
    Because Our God So Loved The World Susan Y Nikitenko December 6th, 2012   Christmas angels all gathered together; Awaiting the birth of the King. They warmed up their heavenly voices To make an appearance to sing.   The clouds opened up to a night sky; The brightness of heaven broke forth. Angels appeared   in glorious form; To announce the messiahs birth.   They sang to the   shepherds on the hillside; Who quaked in much fear to the ground. The angel rejoiced and said, "fear not"; With harmonic, beautiful sound.   They sang glory to God in the highest; Peace and good tidings to earth. For that starry   night was the fulfillment; Of our Saviors most holy birth.   Tears of Joy filled the eyes of the shepherds; They sang and rejoiced in the fields. They gathered thei...
