Jesus said...
"Freely you have received, freely give." Matthew 10:8I, like many, have few true needs,
and when i do, i purchase with speed.
So, if you were planning to shop for me this year,
here's what will bring unprecedented cheer.
Write and send me a short note or a letter,
sharing what you did for a hurting gal or fella.
If short on money, don't despair,
just take some time to show another you care.
Can you do it, can you pass the test?
Can you give to those in need, and send notes to the rest?
So much today is bought strictly in vain,
We spend time and money on things with no real gain.
May we eliminate the rush of buying needless things,
And concentrate on bringing glory to our One True King.
Strength in NOT overindulging to ones we love is required,
to defeat the materialist thinking the world helped us acquire.
God, help us remember everything belongs to You,
And to help care for all your children is what we should do.
A little less for me and more for Thee,
will bring true joy and peace for CHRISTmas eve.
How thrilled i'll be to see my note-filled CHRISTmas tree,
with kind/caring deeds and stories of those who believe...

THANKS BE TO GOD!
"You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God." 2 Corinthians 9:11
we are loved and chosen by God,
may we live, love and do like we believe it,
veneal
(feel free to share the letter as your own)
