Jesus’ Christmas List
There are many that make out a Christmas list;
Things that they would like as gifts.
Some things are needed and some are not.
Some things are useful and some just things we want.
But if Jesus made a list,
I wonder, what would be His request?
What most would He desire?
I know …He wants to dress us in His Holy attire.
I believe on His list we would read:
Your heart is the most valued gift I could receive.
I desire, your life – dedicated to serve your brother,
With your pledge, to love one another.
Words that testify truth to all who will hear.
Confidence and trust that will chase away all your fears.
Commitment to listen for a call for help.
And your love that will to the needy soul reach out.
His requests cause to the one that will hear great peace,
For you cannot out give God – to obey will deliver increase.
Christmas is a special time when peace and love flows.
It is as God designed – it is by Him bestowed.
So in our celebrations we need to keep also in mind,
His list; for it is His birth we celebrate at this time!
John 13:34-35
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples,
if ye have love one to another.
