The Ultimate Gift

This is an old poem, but I hope it will inspire you, reminding you of the Gift of all gifts--It cost the Giver more than we can ever imagine--and it is FREE to whoever will accept it.
The guiltiest sinner can reach out to Jesus and take the Gift of salvation.

The Ultimate Gift

It's Christmastime, and through the land, the hearts of old and young
are filled with joy as once again Christmas carols are sung!

Within each mind the busy thoughts of love, expressed in gifts,
"What can I buy each favored one found on my Christmas list?"

Our families, our relatives, our neighbors and our friends,
Even someone less fortunate a kindness we may lend.


A loving God looked down through time before the world's birth.
To make His list, He scanned the whole of sin-polluted earth.

He sent one gift, and only one -- but great enough for all,
He offered it to those who seek -- both the mighty and the small.

This wondrous Gift -- His only Son -- reached out His arms of love.
He was the Gift for sinners given, sent from the Father above.

Each gift I buy for those I love reminds me of the day
His precious Gift, the best He had, came into my life to stay.

It's Christmastime, and through the land the Gift is offered anew --
the living Gift, the Savior -- God's priceless Gift to you!


"For He has RESCUED us from the dominion of DARKNESS
and brought us into the kingdom
of the SON He loves,
in Whom we have redemption,
the FORGIVENESS of sins."

(Holy Bible--Book of Colossians
chapter 1, verses 13 & 14)

Connie, this is a beautiful, moving poem,and full of the truth about Jesus' birth,the ultimate gift to mankind.
This poem reminds me of the one I wrote for Christmas this year,2012; I have written a Christmas poem for the last three or four years.
When you have a moment, stop by my den and read "The First Gift".
Continued success-

Well executed, Connie, The Ultimate Gift - God coming to us in human flesh, His purpose to redeem us from our sin. It's time we gave back to Him...time is running out!
I watched the news in awe! Thousands of frantic shoppers stressing themselves out to find the "ultimate" gift...when the ultimate gift was already given. Talk about looking in the wrong places, eh?

I trust you had a lovely Christmas! God Bless!
Much love
Lena

A great reflection of the true meaning of Christmas, that which the media wants us to forget. I saw a video today from a TV station that began: "We do not know if this really happened." Thus God's gift is trampled underfoot. Good for you to make us meditate on such a holy event. Victor

Connie ...

I can see parts of this write being a lovely Christmas card. Especially the last stanza. A heart full of thankfulness wrote this. Who can ever understand the depth of the gift that He has bestowed upon those who believe.

Blessings to you and yours this Holiday Season ...
