Advent THoughts
Christmas Shopping
Jesus, I think I hear you coming.
I think I hear a sound that says you’ve cared your way into my life again.
I think I see a light more lasting than the ones we hang on trees.
I think I see a world that’s splashed with God again
so gospelled with his presence so covered with his love
yet, lonely still. . .
O shoppers, dear shoppers put your carts away.
Please put your carts away and search deep down within your hearts
for gifts that will not rust or fade
O look into your God-splashed, gospelled hearts and see!
See Christmas standing there waiting to be,
not bought but given free.
