Christmas is a time to give, and that is what The Lord God did. <br />God sent His Son as a gift for all, to save man from Adam’s fall. <br />Christ came just like you and me, as a little baby for all to see. <br />For God prepared a body for Him, to redeem all man from his sin. <br />He gave His Only Son Jesus Christ, to all the world as a sacrifice. <br /> <br />Christmas Gifts by many are bought without giving Christ a thought. <br />Would we have Christmas friend, if Christ, by God was never sent? <br />It is indeed a festive season, but, many forget its primary reason. <br />It is to celebrate and worship Him, who was born to die for our sin. <br />The greatest gift to all the earth is through Him we have new birth. <br /> <br />God’s gift was sent to Bethlehem, to become the Savior of all men. <br />From that small baby in the hay, He grew up to show men The Way, <br />That way is for all the nations, to come to God through His salvation. <br />He grew up in Nazareth, no place to be, for The King of all Eternity. <br />But that was just a temporal home, now He’s in Glory on a Throne. <br /> <br />Christ is not just a baby in a stall; He is God and The Lord of all. <br />A stable was the place of birth, for The Lord and King of the earth. <br />Once again to earth He’ll come, to reign as King from Jerusalem. <br />God’s gift was given to all men, but you have to accept Him friend. <br />So accept, as Lord, Jesus Christ, and His gift to you is Eternal Life. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©11/2004)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/god-s-christmas-gift/
