Christmas Love

God used His finger to fill the seas With cobalt whispers and azure dreams God touched the mountains and slopes With dancing oaks and laughing pine trees God threw the stars, all twinkling with light Across the night skies, brilliant – alive! God formed the sun with His beautiful smile Filling every heart with joy and promise God colored the roses, the lilacs and lilies With music awash in His stunning radiance God left glitter across the sunny reflections Lingering on the kiss of His very breath! God fashioned the birds, butterflies and bees In artistic hues, vibrant and filled with melodies God whispered hope across the silent creation Reminded every heart that He is so amazing God blinked out a breathtaking grace and peace Across the delicate faith that prays with praise! God encouraged the heart to love without conditions With a love that gives more willingly than it expects God lit up the darkness with kindness and beauty Shimmering with reminders that He is pure and holy God sent us a Savior, His one and only Son, Jesus To save us from our worries, our fears and our enemies! God taught us to believe with a sincere trust in Him The One who created our spirits and gave us feelings The One who breathed His own breath into our lungs The One who knew our souls better than we could hope The One who would never leave us or forsake us The One who brought us grace to assure our salvation! This Christmas, my prayer is for this one gift… Knowing the One who is love – with a heart that is assured Of the bright and shining light who fills spirits With a sense of faith – assurance of His grace And the chance to reach out to others with His gift The assurance that Love came down one Christmas Eve!
