Now That CHRISTmas Is Over ~

Now that CHRISTmas is over,
Lord, may I give back to You . . .
the same love You have given me
as another year I pursue.

May Your Light be seen in me,
way past CHRISTmas day
may it continue to shine bright
through the words I say.

Now that CHRISTmas is over,
Lord, may I give back to You
the same joy You’ve given me
as the year makes its debut.

May my thankfulness,
for You by others be seen
in everything that I do
may my gratitude beam.

Now that CHRISTmas is over,
Lord, may I give back to You . . .
my love and devotion
in all I say and do!

Luke 6:38

Give, and it shall be given unto you;
good measure, pressed down,
and shaken together, and running over,
shall men give into your bosom.
For with the same measure that ye mete
withal it shall be measured to you again

Happy Birthday Jesus ~

Happy Birthday Jesus,
I’m making for You a cake
so my family and I . . .
Your life can celebrate.

The candles will reflect Your light,
the frosting will spread Your love
the filling will be a mixture of . . .
every perfect gift from above.

I’m giving to You a present,
filled with my gratitude
inside it You will find for You
a forever thankful attitude.

I’ll wrap it in Your grace,
with the ribbons of Your peace
and a promise everyday . . .
my praise to You I’ll release.

Happy Birthday Jesus,
I’m so glad that You are here
today I’ll celebrate Your birth . . .
with a hallelujah cheer!

Isaiah 9:6

“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.”

Thankful Everyday ~

We don’t need a special day,
to show how we’re thankful
for every day to God . . .
we need to be grateful.

We can come together,
any time of the year
and share the real cause
for our heart’s good cheer.

We can give our thanks,
no matter the season
a special holiday
needn’t be the only reason.

We can enter into,
the gates of thanksgiving
anytime, anywhere
without a single misgiving.

For, God doesn’t care,
when or how we show . . .
our thankfulness to Him
He just wants to know!

Psalm 100:4

“Enter into his gates
with thanksgiving,
and into his courts
with praise:
be thankful unto him,
and bless his name.”
