Christmas - reason or treason!
True they say Christ is the reason,
Reason for the season,
Saying doesn't make it so,
For many treason is the reason,
Treason in Christ's kingdom,
It is a time for sharing,
Not one to be lost in materialism,
It is a time for caring,
It is a time for loving,
A time when we remember how the creator,
Became the created,
A time to celebrate the greatest gift of all,
Christ the King,
Who came like a babe in a manger,
Not swathed in gold,
Not attended by servants,
The humblest King of all,
A fulfillment of prophecy,
Some of the first steps,
Towards the redemption of wretched man,
A drama acted from the blueprint of the Master,
First scenes on a stage fit for calves,
His humility took away nothing from his greatness,
His birth in a manger failed to diminish his omnipotence,
His omniscience,
His omnipresence,
His humanity did not affect His deity,
Now this is personal,
He is my King :-)
