Twas the Day Before Christmas

Twas the day before Christmas and all through the mall, the shoppers were freaking, the big and the small.

One day's not enough time to buy all that I need, so I'll drive with reckless abandon, I'll curse, and I'll speed.

I don't care if this is the season for giving... it's the "all about ME and MY family's life", that I'M living.

But this thing we call Christmas is more than gifts, food, and a tree.  It's about the birth of a most special and blessed baby.

This Jesus the Christ, this King of all Kings, is the best of all reasons to eat, laugh, and sing.

He was sent here from Heaven to show us the way -  live life with hope, love, joy and peace, every and I mean EVERY day.

So be kind to your neighbor when waiting in line at the store, and if you say prayers for others, then say 10 prayers more.

If you go to Church tonight or tomorrow morn, move down the pew for others and hold back the scorn.

Drive with caution and patience and cheer, and keep look out for bad drivers, grannies, and deer.

Take time to be thankful for family and friends, and for a Jesus that came to show us that life never ends.

Merry Christmas to all my family and friends!!
