25 December 2014 - A Christmas Poem

People often say that Jesus is the reason
For this festive and meaningful season
Of course that is true but perhaps there is more
About three types of gifts I will briefly explore
 
The first gift is covered in John three verse sixteen
God gave us His Son, the greatest gift ever seen
He did that because He loves us so much
And each of our lives Jesus did then touch
Jesus showed us how to live and conquered death
We should give thanks for this with every single breath
 
The second gift is what God has given each person
He gave us a unique set of talents, not just for fun
Each person on earth God does love for He did create
We each have a mission that we should not leave to fate
Because of our unique talents we each have a unique role
To utilize them for God's glory should be our ultimate goal
 
The third gift results directly from the stanzas above
It happens when we use our gifts to share God's love
By sharing God's love, we can be a gift to others
Whether old or young, rich or poor, sisters of brothers
Gifts of love are shared in many a different way
What we do, what we show, and what we say
 
In conclusion, I guess what I am trying to convey
Is that God's gifts to us are visible every day
Our way of showing thanks should therefore be
Showing His gifts and His love for the world to see
