The Christmas Tree
"From a tree a manger was made,
The First Christmas, in it He laid.
From a tree a Cross was made,
On it, for our sins, the price He paid.
Each year as my tree I adorn,
I give thanks for the day He was born.
Gently I place ornaments of gold,
Knowing my life is His to hold.
Trusting Him to take care of me,
I praise Him as I decorate my tree.
"I Am the Way, the Truth and the Light," said He.
That's why I put lights on my Christmas tree."

May the Light of Christ be your reason for the season!
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas!

thank you, Sylvia! I need to find out who the author of that little poem is! It is very special.
DeleteSuch a sweet poem! I did a little investigating, and it's written by someone named K. Ross (no idea if they are male or female). I've seen several, longer versions of it. I can send it to you, if you'd like that, Pam.
ReplyDeletethank you Pam! I appreciate that information. Yes, if you want to send it to me, that would be great. Do you have my email address? Or facebook?
