LOVE COMBINED-LOVE INCARNATE
LOVE COMBINED-LOVE INCARNATE
For the first time
In many years-we have HANUKKAH
And Christmas combined
The Jewish nation and the
Christian GENTILE NATION together
LOVE COMBINED-life as it should be
“His DOMINION is vast
And forever PEACEFUL........” Isaiah 9:6
So on this Christmas DAY
Let us take a moment
To REMEMBER the ONE
Who has dominion over ALL
The ONE who rules our hearts
With unconditional love
The one who TRIUMPHS over all
The one who trumps all
Love combined-LOVE INCARNATE-
HAPPY HANUKKAH!-MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Divine Peace is accessible peace
Forever more
I PRAY for peace in this world
EVERY day-and I TRY to live my life
In FAITH-by promoting peace
To ALL people
To all denominations
Forever peace-forever more
That is GOD'S WAY
“The Lord
Gives STRENGTH to his people
The Lord BLESSED his people
With peace” Psalm 29:11
“For us a CHILD is born
To us a son is given
And the government
Will be on his shoulders
And he will be CALLED
Wonderful Counselor-MIGHTY GOD-
Everlasting Father-PRINCE OF PEACE” Isaiah 9:6
2,000 years ago
A SAVIOR was born
To this world
But the world
REJECTED him
And the world
Seems to STILL reject his teachings
Today-on LOVE-on forgiveness-and on kindness
But I URGE YOU-on this day
Of all days-
“LET there be PEACE
On earth
And let it begin
With me”
So this year
No matter HOW MUCH divisiveness
Exists within your family
No matter how extensive
The violence IS-in this world
Let us OPEN UP
And RECEIVE the unconditional love of God
The UNCONDITIONAL love of Christ
For it is unlimited-
It knows NO BOUNDS
Love unlimited
Love combined-
LOVE INCARNATE-love that knows no bounds
LOVE UNFAILING
“Turn Lord-and DELIVER me
Save me
Because of your unfailing love” Psalm 6:4
LET US commemorate this day
This day of Christ's LOVE
This day of Christ's coming
This day of HAPPY HANUKKAHS
Into a day of LOVE for ALL
God came to DWELL in us
In the ONE of Jesus Christ
God's love UNLIMITED
God's love COMBINED & INCARNATE
LOVE UNFAILING!
HOW can we resist
Such a marvelous present?
Let us BEGIN
To get it right
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
HAPPY HANUKKAH!
GOD'S LOVE IS INCLUSIVE
I LOVE YOU ALL!
