The Gift
The time has come! It’s here again! Don’t miss a decoration!!
Christmas brings its share of work with tons of preparation!
We trim the tree and light the lights and decorate our yards,
And buy online and storm the malls to max our credit cards!
All to see a smiling face when unwrapping a new toy,
Just one of many things we see to feel Christmas joy.
But it’s not the gifts that we unwrap or the number of our presents,
There’s something more about this day that inspires the season’s essence.
We’ve all received a Gift this day, a Gift from God above,
He sent His newborn Son to us, His greatest Gift of Love.
A Gift that we can freely share, one we can all afford,
A Gift to give to others, the living presence of our Lord.
So let’s enjoy our Christmas and be thankful for this day,
As the Gift we have in Jesus will never fade away.
Dear Lord, We thank you for the wonderful Gift of your Son. We pray to feel His love, peace and forgiveness, and the courage to share it with others throughout the year.
To all – a very merry and blessed Christmas,
Dom Perfetti
