It’s that time of year,
to start again planning
the season’s festivities
which are so demanding.
So, I’m making my list,
checking it anew . . .
making sure Jesus
it first includes You.
For with all the to do’s,
amidst the busyness
I don’t want to forget
the truth of CHRISTmas.
So, I’m taking a time out,
to pause and to ponder
to rejoice and to revere in
this time of great wonder.
It’s that time of year,
to list all the reasons
why I truly celebrate . . .
the CHRISTmas season!

For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given:
and the government shall
be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counsellor,
The mighty God,
The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace.
But Mary kept all these things,
and pondered them in her heart.

I find this time of year can be so overwhelming and I can loose track of Him amidst all the things that need to get done. So making Jesus first on my list helps me to stay focused on CHRISTmas’ true meaning. ~ Have a blessed day with our Savior ~
