Christmas Heaven On Earth

I wonder if Christmas in heaven is similar to Christmas on earth I'd imagine it's quite miraculous as they celebrate Jesus birth I'd picture a choir of angels singing and dancing to harp and violin All while rejoicing and repenting both his life and sacrifice for all our sins For now Easter is an entirely different story At the moment we are still speaking of Christmas in all of its glory His birth bringing people such joy,hope,faith and inspiration So much beauty to behold in all of God's creation Spreading unwavering and unconditional love across so many nations Love in life above hate and all else is of the greatest gift and sensation This in particular was a blissful blessed night Bearing gifts three wise men did travel navigating by the star of Bethlehem burning so bright So many onlookers came to see Mary and Joseph's sweet baby boy that came to be Without gift summoned by Magi to his Nativity with Mary's approval it is said a drummer boy played his drums for him I wonder if it's really true and if baby Jesus really smiled at him or if we're stretching too far out on a limb An angel was sent and announced his birth to Shepard's tending their flocks while he lay tucked peacefully sleeping in a manger wearing swaddling clothes He came into this world to atone for our sins, resurrected to eternal life, and is alive today is how the story goes Who knew they'd all bear witness and watch an important part of history unravel and unfold Still some of it remains a mystery and not all of it will be told Material items don't know or compare to Christmas real worth Christmas is really a small slice of heaven here on earth When Christmas comes don't just think of Santa and all that he'll bring Remember the reasons the angels in the choir sing For it really started when Christ our Savior was born Let the heavens smile upon us as love,joy and peace fill our hearts and remember this on Christmas morn 12/15/2017

A lovely poem Melissa... It's impossible for man to describe the Savior of the world... even the feeling of our own hearts we find difficult ... but we try... All the best
