This CHRISTmas,
instead of hearth decorating
let it be your inner beauty
to all that’s captivating.
Rather than trimming,
your roof top, eaves and lawn
put on a calm and quiet spirit
so others to Jesus will be drawn.
This CHRISTmas,
instead of lighting a tree
let the light of Jesus
in you be what others see.
Rather than garnishing,
your fireplace mantle
adorn your heart and soul
with a spirit that’s gentle.
This CHRISTmas,
instead of all the fuss and ado
let your inner man reveal . . .
Jesus living inside of you!
~~~~~
“But let your adorning be
the hidden person of the heart
with the imperishable beauty
of a gentle and quiet spirit,
which in God’s sight
is very precious”
