Removing CHRIST From CHRISTmas Is Ludicrous
I sat this morning thinking of Jesus
How Emmanuel means "God with us"
Tears started to flow down my cheek
As I pondered on the world's reasoning
Even nonbelievers love this season
Yet they want to remove the only reason
This day set up to celebrate Christ birth
Is taken out of context devoid of it's worth
I see Jesus looking down to see
The lack of love in humanity
How the greatest gift many refuse
God gave the world a perfect love to choose
He sees the trees all lit up
Which should represent the light of Jesus
He sees the nativities becoming more few
For this scene can't be renamed or renewed
The CHRISTmas tree has been renamed holiday tree
Instead of Merry Christmas it's Happy Holiday greetings
With every other holiday it's called by it's name
Except the Most important giving Glory to Christ the King
When it's valentines,July 4th,labor day,veterans,and such
None has been renamed except the one to celebrate Jesus
It seems to become more and more secular each year
Because the true meaning has been lost that we held so dear
Oh it is true Christians honor Him on CHRISTmas day
But more and more society works to take Him away
Removing any trace of the babe that was born for us
Mockers and scorners multiply against Our Christ Jesus
So when you receive a gift this year
I pray the greatest gift is made more clear
For without God's mercy and love each day
The gift of life could be taken away
For all our life's breath comes from above
The Creator of life with perfect love
A Saviour was born for all of us
Won't you remember this day is to celebrate Jesus
For to remove Christ from CHRISTmas
is totally LUDICROUS!

My Nativity AGLOW I Share Below
Luke 2:10-15 (King James Version)
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold,
I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city
of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you;
Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes,
lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude
of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace, good will toward men.
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away
from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another,
Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing
which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
TRIPLES with EMMA
