Santa is full of promises that he cannot always keep. But there is One who keeps all His promises!


Poem Artwork

 So Christmastime is here again,
and the stores are all aglow
Partly young and shining faces,
partly glitter and faux snow.

And there upon a massive red throne,
jolly old Santa sits and waits
To give you ear, for a very good year,
and a candy cane to taste!
​
Have you been very good..  or very bad, Child? 
Is what he wants to know
For the number of gifts you will receive,
depend upon, your yes... or no.
Many a child has taken his list,
and presented it to Santa, to deliver
But I want you to foster, that he‘s an imposter;
for I know the real Gift-Giver! 
​
​
The Real Gift-Giver
​
I know the real Gift-Giver
I sit upon His knee
I pull His beard and kiss His face
For all the angels to see!
​
I know the real Gift-Giver
And what He has given me -
Beginning with my life itself
And then, Eternity!
​
Oh, I know the real Gift-Giver 
Who gave to us His Only Son 
Who was born for my Salvation - 
And not just me, but everyone! 
​
I know the real Gift-Giver
His name is Holy Father
He is my ABBA Daddy
And I, am His loving daughter!
​
Oh yes, I know the real Gift-Giver
Whose sovereignty reigns throughout the world
My hands are raised, in His mighty praise -
For I am His, bouncing, baby girl!
​
I know the real Gift-Giver
And though oft-mocked or ridiculed
My faith will never waiver
For I, as His, cannot be fooled! 
​
I know the real Gift-Giver
I live and move and breathe inside of Him
His Holy Spirit ever inhabits me
And my joy flows over the brim!
​
Yea, I know the real Gift-Giver
He’s THE GOD of all creation -
The Very One, Who gave His Son
For the Christmas Celebration!
​
If you, do not know, the real Gift-Giver
You can change all of that today
Simply come into His presence with me
By dropping to your knees.. to pray!
​
Then, with an earnest heart
Confess your life of sin
Ask Him to be forgiven
And for Jesus to come in..
 
Come into your heart, Beloved
His Spirit, there, to dwell
For knowing the real Gift-Giver
Prevents Eternal-hell!
​
Oh, I know, the real Gift-Giver
Is waiting just for you
With open arms, He never harms
His Love is good, and true .
​
So come now! All ye faithful
Just to worship and adore
Give thanks to the real Gift-Giver
For gifts He gives, galore!
​
O’ Come! Let us adore Him
As you recall the Newborn King
The Son of the real Gift-Giver
O’ let, those Silver Bells ring!
​
I know the real Gift-Giver
Who takes such great delight
In giving gifts to His children
Every day and night!
​
Yes, Beloved, I truly do know the real Gift-Giver
And I also know that you, do not, have to wait
For December 25th to roll around each year
Because His gifts come down, neither early, nor late!
​
So I wish you a very Merry Christmas
And all the gifts that will eradicate your fears -
Gifts of Peace, Love and Joy, unto ev’ry girl and boy
That will carry you, throughout all your years!

And if you really want to prosper, Beloved 
In the New Year, Two Thousand Twenty-One
Then YOU MUST give your heart to the real Gift-Giver
To watch where the windows of Heaven have begun..
​
To pour themselves out upon you
As you obediently serve the LORD -
Yea, the Love of the real Gift-Giver
Can never, ever, really, be told.

 
​
“Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.  Every good and perfect gift comes down from above from the Father of lights, in Whom there is no varying, no shadow of turning.”   
                                                       St. James 1:16-17   
​
“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him!”   St. Luke  11:13
​
​MERRY CHRIST-MASS WITH LOVE AND HOPE!

Strangely, if he would only give us the wisdom to take only the gifts we need and especially the simple gift of less, especially stanzas in poetry, we might save ourselves the wrath of his realizing we have gone too far. For God has not prepared another place for us. We must save our place for all those who follow. May they be less in number and not more.
