And there will be gifts
(Are you using your tithes & offerings?)
New years arriving
There will be shout and cheers! (HAPPY New year!!)
Parties
Prayer meeting (traditional)
People seeking places to bring it in
Who to spend it with
And another year have past by and they
Ignored
The SAVIOR!
But
The resolutions start flying
I'm going to do this
I'm going to do that
I'm going to start
I'm going to stop
All this didn't happen
All last year
After
All these words were spoken
AND!!!
No one said
"I'm going to stop sinning!"
This year
OR!!!
How many?
"Said I'm giving my heart to….."
OR!!!
Back…….(hmm) to!
CHRIST!!!!
And probably this won't happen in the new year
Neither
AND!!!
They probably will not
THANK THE LORD for THE NEW MERCIES they've
SEEN
For another day
For another breath
Sight to the eyes
Hearing to the ears
The BASIC every day stuff
Life in GENERAL!!!!!
As they so take it for GRANTED!
MONEY
HOMES
CARS
FOOD
SHOES & CLOTHES
SLEEPING IN BEDS
NOT ON FLOORS OR ON A PARK BENCH
HEAT
HOT WATER
But
In the hearts & Through the Lips
Of the lost
Plans are being made for
The future year
Without CHRIST!!!!!!!!
The MAIN thing NEEDED
The PERFECT GIFT to
EVERYBODY & ANYBODY!!!
But
The celebration goes on
AND
JESUS is not being celebrated
But HE CONTINUES…...
TO
WAIT
KNOCKING
For THOSE LOST to open
Their doors
For HIM to be let in
But
REJECTION
Comes Instead
The door is shut
Tightly
Locked
Bolted
Slammed in HIS
Loving face
Missing the opportunity
To get loved
To fall in
Love with the king
Missing
CHRISTMAS (get it!!!)
The best
GIFT EVER!!!!!!!!!
Wasn't opened
But you chose
CHRIST-MISS
You missed (HIM) CHRIST!
DON'T keep the door closed
Open it
Receive your GIFT of LIFE!!!
For when CHRIST comes
Will you be happy Celebrating his
Return
OR
Will you be a candidate to be burned????
Not a good choice
