With all the holiday hustle and bustle <br />We tend to overlook the importance of. <br />What the true meaning of Christmas is all about <br />The truest gift of a small child’s purest love. <br /> <br />Not a childs' bright red trains or toys <br />That are colorfully wrapped and set beneath a tree. <br />But the birth of child that came to save mankind <br />One day…at Calvary. <br /> <br />To offer mankind away…forgiveness of sin <br />While his broken body was nailed upon a cross. <br />Slow down this Christmas, so you too can feel the truest of love <br />Of our Saviors’ birth… in your Christmas haste, might have lost.<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/slow-down-this-christmas/
