A special Christmas poem.

[Harold]

One of my mothers friends sent this to me this weekend in remembrance of my mother. I'm passing it along in remembrance of K-J's mother and anyone else who has lost a loved one this year. I picked this up from my mailbox on the way to our church, the sunday service before Christmas, it made the whole Christmas story even more special, because I knew my mother was with the Lord.

My Christmas In Heaven

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below,

With tiny lights, like Heaven's stars, reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away the tear-

For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear,

But the sounds of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring,

For it is beyond description to hear the angels song.

I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart,

But I am not so far away, we really aren't apart.

So be happy for me, loved ones, you know I hold you dear-

And be glad I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I sent you each a special gift, from my heavenly home above,

I sent you each a memory of my undying love.

After all, love is a gift more precious than pure gold-

It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.

Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do,

For I can't count the blessings He has for each of you.

So have a Merry Christmas, and wipe away that tear-

Remember, I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

To each of you, I send my love. Your brother, Harold.

Have a beautiful Christmas, and God bless each one.

Father, I thank you through Jesus for Harold.

 

[Harold]

Thank you Intersessor, and may His love be with You in a special way this season.

Thank you Harold, this poem always brings tears to my eyes ever since my parents passed away, but it warms my heart to know they walk with angels.
