Stuck In a Christmas Globe

STUCK IN A CHRISTMAS GLOBE In my Christmas Globe, I see a world Where a manger scene is first unfurled To show the birth of the Son of God Who walks the path where angels trod We celebrate His Birth each year With parades designed to create joy and cheer But the world just doesn't seem to see How He later suffered on a cruel tree Without His birth, the world today Would be in greater disarray But through His birth there is reprieve For everyone who decides to believe This Child would one day die for them A death that is so brutally grim But death and grave could not retain On the third day He rose to life again Seated at the right hand of God And walking where the angels trod He will return to earth triumphantly To claim those who chose to believe And take them with Him so they can be Alive with Him for eternity All will be wearing a bright white robe This is the scene from my Christmas Globe 11 December 2019 For the contest sponsored by Bobby May

A lovely scene for a snow globe. I once, as a child, had a dream that I could see visions of Jesus birth in the nighttime sky.

Jesus can truly be seen in many places if one just knows where to look, i.e., homeless people, veterans in need of care, broken homes, etc., and I know from your comments that you fully understand what I am talking about. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks, Gordon! Yes, all is well, and I pray it is with you. The life of Christ is well worth talking about and writing about. His Second Coming is the best part.
