Just piling logs in the fireplace of your heart, anticipating events in December... :)


 


Just Imagine


By


h. lena jones


 


Oh, I was hoping you’d drop in


‘Cause I’d like to send you on a journey


Imagine it is Christmas right now in October


Take a horse and buggy ride around your neighborhood


Watch the host of colorful fairy lights blinking


Marvel at the various creative displays


Of decorations and nativity scenes


Glimpse through windows


The happy faces of grown-ups and children


As they trim the Christmas tree


Feel the joy that’s in the air


The peace that spreads within your heart


Taste the scrumptious turkey dinner


Hear the chatter and laughter


As folk share those precious moments


Of Christmases gone before


Let your imaginary journey take you to the cave


Where baby Jesus, wrapped in swaddling clothes


Waits to greet you with a gurgle of love


Reminding you of the reason for the season


And the unexplained peace and joy


Which permeate the Earth


And touches the emotions of all of mankind


Even if they don’t all believe in Him


But your journey need not end here


Make everyday like Christmas day


Spread the love of God to all you encounter


Because that’s what baby Jesus did


The day they came to see Him in the stable


Give thanks to God for making you


The loving person you are today!


 


“Glory to God in the highest


And on earth peace


Good will toward men,” sang the Heavenly host!


(Luke 2:14)


 


Christmas time will soon be here


Let’s make a point to really remember


The reason for the season!

A good exhortation Lena.

I wish the system and its overlords understood ... I've seen shops already setting up to sell for Christmas.

Beautiful work, Lena. There are many who want to mask Christmas. It is not considerred politically correct to say "MERRY CHRISTMAS." Now we are told to say Happy Holidays. They are even calling it Decemberfest. I say MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT. lET US NOT FORGET THE FIRST SIX LETTERS IN CHRISTMAS IS "CHRIST."
God Bless,
Lew

That's America. It's why it will alway be special in my heart.
Here we have a dark gathering storm of Evil, who worship a false god and do a thing called ramadam/n

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
