The Christmas Child*********************************** ST. MATTHEW 1-23 Behold a virgin shall be with child and shall bring forth a son,and they call his name Emmanuel, Which being interpreted is,God with us. ************************************ Christmas the birthday of Jesus Christ our Lord What a miracle in the little town of Bethlehem It was a silent night it was a holy night . In a stable so humble was the birth place of a king Gods son was born and He named him Jesus. ~Q~ God's good and faithful servants knew a king of all kings the son of God was coming. Because God promised a Savior would be born So they waited and watched for a sign from God. ~~~~~ The Shepard's in the field at night tending their sheep saw a beautiful star in the east. they knew they were to follow the shinning star The three wise men knew our Savior was born they knew The beautiful star was a sign it showed the way God had fulfilled his promise as a new born baby He sent his beloved son to earth to be born in a stable In the little town of Bethlehem. ~Q~ As a man Jesus walked among the rich and the poor and He healed the rich and poor alike.But He had no place to lay his head he was brought before king's with fine robes and shining crowns But only to God his father did he kneel down. ~~~~~ When it come time in his life to do his father will Jesus was a king he was the son of God yet he was a man a sacrifice.He had to suffer and die for our sins so he was beaten he was spit upon he was laughed at our Innocent Jesus took it all. ~~~~~ A crown of thorns was placed on his head He was put upon the cross and was crucified with nails in his hands and feet. But He still loved his killer's he said Father forgive them for they know not what they do. ~~~~~ Remember Christmas is not just about Santa Claus Christmas trees and giving gifts . It's about a little baby our Lord our King Born a long time ago in the little town of Bethlehem. but he's alive today and he still loves us Christmas is the birthday of the SON OF GOD on Christmas sing Happy Birthday dear Jesus Merry Christmas to You ~~~~~~ Poem By Clara Strickland Brinkley copyright©2008 Vote for this poem
