The First Day
Wake in the morning
with the Christ child
in your midst,
not distant or near, but here –
tangible and touchable.
Hear his cry, his coo, his sigh,
feel His breath.
Wake in the morning
and know His reality
is not just a dream.
Wake in the morning
with God’s promise
fulfilled.

I want to share with you a simple little story about how the Spirit inspired me yesterday during the Christmas Day Service. Near the end of the service we were instructed to turn to page 366…..
A baby?
No, that is so much more –
That is Love lying in a manger
God’s love come to earth
We call God’s Love – Jesus
because God’s Love will save us.
