Our Modern Christmas

So, we celebrate Christmas
But are missing the Messiah
No manger no mention
Of our need, to look higher.
Christmas

This mystery unfolded
God reached out as man
As the Lord of Creation
As Messiah, His plan.
Our Thought Patterns

So, daily cleave to God’s Word
And set your mind above
Keep proclaiming, God’s promises
Denounce the devil, declare God’s love.
Fresh Manna

Not those verses from childhood
Nor the sermon last week
But fresh manna from heaven
The LORD, daily do seek.
God Fights for Israel

Despite her failures, abuses
Rejection of their Messiah
Our God watches, over Israel
They will know Him, states Zachariah.
Willing to Wait?

Are we willing to wait
In the darkness, no light?
No hope, but the LORD
Know in you, He delights.
Be His Lighthouse

In the midst of the night
When darkness, seems greatest
Know light, shines the brightest
So be strongest and bravest.
The Message of Christmas

Stepped into our world
So broken, and bound
Brought light and salvation
That lost souls are found.
Temptation

And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.
Quiet Time with God

Yes, pray for God’s Spirit
Come speak to your soul
Not rushing while reading
Lest from Him, time you stole.
