Christmas Comes, Reminding Us
Like a soft snow on a sunny morning,
Christmas comes, glowing with what really matters, lighting up the day,
reminding us to love one another, even enemies,
reminding us to be a candle set on a candlestick, not hidden under a bushel,
reminding us to be light in the darkness, brightening another’s way,
reminding us to take no thought for material things, seeking heavenly treasure,
reminding us to be who we are, the sons and daughters of God.
