The Splendor of Christmas

Upon this blue and green planet, shrouded by the cover of clouds, Are the lives of people as plain as you and I, or as lofty as the Highest royals. Each life contains a multitude of stories, and each Life intertwines with the lives of others. God made this planet, and He Made you and I. The grand design of the universe was conceived in the mind of God, from the smallest dew on the emerald grass, to the deer With tails of white, to the oceans and seas, to the reaches of The galaxies, to the colors of the anomalies in space, and to The beauty and glory of worlds yet undiscovered. The heart Of God is as a master painter who paints with every color, every Emotion, and every melody. If all of creation existed as a glorious tapestry, then the fabric, The textures, and the colors would be woven together to tell the stories Of the rise and fall of nations, and the stories of the lives of People who lived and loved. From the coldness of space this world Shelters the hopes and dreams of its inhabitants. And there is One Who loves the beauty of His creation, and He has bathed our world In His love. And that is the splendor of Christmas.
