Can THIS Be Christmas?

What's all this hectic rush and worry?
Where go these crowds who run and scurry?
Why all the lights - the Christmas trees?
The jolly 'fat man', tell me, please!

Why, don't you know? This is the day
For parties and for fun and play;
Why, this is Christmas!

So this is Christmas, do you say?
But where is Christ this Christmas Day?
Has He been lost among the throng?
His voice drowned out by empty song?

No, He's not there - you'll find Him where
Some humble soul now kneels in prayer,
Who knows the Christ of Christmas.

But see the many aimless thousands
Who gather on this Christmas Day,
Whose hearts have never yet been opened,
Or said to Him, 'Come in to stay'.

In countless homes the candles burning,
In countless hearts expectant yearning
For gifts and presents, food and fun,
And laughter till the day is done.

But not a tear or grief or sorrow
For Him so poor he had to borrow
A crib, a colt, a boat, a bed
Where He could lay His weary head.

I'm tired of all this empty celebration
Of feasting, drinking, recreation;
I'll go instead to Calvary.

And there I'll kneel with those who know
The meaning of that manger low,
And find the CHRIST - this Christmas.

I leap by faith across the years
To that great day when He appears
The second time, to rule and reign,
And end all sorrow, death, and pain.

In endless bliss we then shall dwell
With Him who saved our souls from hell,
And worship CHRIST - not Christmas!

Dear Princess Carroll,

Let go of your fears, doubts, and anxieties and look at all of the good that exists in your life. It all comes from God, and he is always there to love and guide you. Just find a way to trust in Him and your life will be changed forever.

May God bless and guide you on your journey of faith.

Stephen

Hi Stephen. Thanks for this Group. Yes I do believe in the power of God. But... (uh oh, trouble right)...but I find that even as I say that and that I believe God loves me and that I believe that He is all-powerful, when it comes down to incidents in my life, I exhibit someone who doesn't really believe that. Because I doubt, am afraid and wonder how things will turn out.
Do we really believe?

So tell me. Do you truly believe in the power of God and His ability to grant us all that we ask for?
