Celebrating Christmas

How should we really celebrate Christmas Only in our own special individual ways Should we lift Him up this day feeling good With only our heartfelt words of praise Should we try to make ourselves feel well By celebrating It only in a worldly way Or should we make Christmas a lifestyle Emulating how He lived his life each day Though He walked many weary miles long ago With little of the worldly things many need Where he walked you’ll still find his footprints For all humankind to see after many centuries His hands reached out touching and healing many Never asking for a worldly payment in return Only that we should honor His heavenly Father Receiving from His Spirit priceless wisdom learn Our Lord is selflessly humble in His nature Hoping we might learn to emulate Him over time Desiring us to be a true blessing to others While sharing His love which seals and binds We should help the poor and needy as He would. Never turning our eyes from where the sick may lay We should help the elderly and fatherless among us While the homeless we should clothe and feed always We should never turn from the children around us Embracing them with the fullness of our hearts love For in doing these acts of kindness we honor Him Who came among us an eternal blessing from above We should visit those locked away in prisons Letting each know for them we still care and pray While the widows we should honor and help them Bringing a consistent love in their lives to stay God does not judge another’s outward appearance Casting none away because of their ethnicity For He loves everyone who lives in this world Giving all who come to him salvation’s opportunity We must love our brothers and sisters as ourselves While casting away hints of our former selfishness We should also honor our fathers and mothers daily Embracing them with our loves most wholesome kiss For Jesus is much more than only our Lord and Savior Whose birth we celebrate and honor Christmas day His life is a perfect example how we should live Helping others to taste His grace in numerous ways Follow the excellent example how He lived his life Creating priceless memories in another’s each day Sharing selflessly His tremendous blessing of love Making life better for others in many awesome ways.
