What Christmas Is All About

And, lo, the angel of the Lord
came upon them… And the angel
said unto them, Fear not: for, behold,
I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people. For unto
you is born this day in the city of David
a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:9-11

Spirit of Christmas

And, lo, the angel of the Lord
came upon them… And the angel said
unto them, Fear not: for, behold,
I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day
in the city of David a Saviour,
which is Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:9-11

A Song Was Heard at Christmas

A song was heard at Christmas
To wake the midnight sky:
A saviour’s birth, and peace on earth,
And praise to God on high.
The angels sang at Christmas
With all the hosts above,
And still we sing the newborn King
His glory and his love.

Timothy Dudley-Smith

Snowball

I made myself a snowball,
As perfect as could be,
I thought I’d keep it as a pet,
And let it sleep with me.

I made it some pajamas,
And a pillow for its head,
Then last night it ran away,
But first – it wet the bed!

~ Shel Silverstein

Christmas

It came without ribbons.
It came without tags.
It came without packages, boxes, or bags.
Maybe Christmas doesn’t come from a store.
Maybe Christmas means a little bit more!
