Good News

I have good news this Christmas! 
Christ abides within me.
Nothing done by anyone 
can shake that reality.

They removed the commandments 
to do their part ,
but He hid them beyond reach 
 deep in my heart.

They allow murder of those yet unborn,
 some selfish twisted plan.
But the Author of life knows each heart 
before Him all will stand.

They cry Marriage is what it's not
condoning a life that way,
But the truth is the truth forever
no matter what they say ,
The only true marriage is between he and she ,
words cannot take that away.

I have good news this Christmas, 
for if Christ abides within, 
His transforming work is beyond man's reach 
offering cool garden walks again.
