    Poem Commentary

    It is so easy. Just turn around.

    His Christmas Wish

    You needn't wait til you've crashed headlong
    When you've hit the skids and it's all gone wrong
    You can turn around long before you must
    Jesus waits for all, giving Perfect Trust.

    You needn't buy new clothes or a shiny hat
    He will take you now, no matter where you're at
    Who can you say wants you, no matter what the stain
    He who follows you and always will remain.

    You needn't reach the pit, only filled with black
    He will pick you up, healing all your lack
    With a gentle touch, pleading silently
    Celebrate My Birth, Son, Come home to Me.

    I love this piece because your message is true. No condemnation, He just wants us to come to Him. "You needn't buy new clothes or a shiny hat He will take you now, no matter where you're at." A beautiful reminder of the kind of God we serve.

    “I am ready to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the ordeal of meeting me is another matter.” ~Winston Churchill A bit of humor, as often (at least for myself) I wonder if God shakes his head, takes a deep breath and says, “Here she comes.” If he does, that is all right. With this my heart is assured that not only does he recognize me, accept me-he loves me despite all that. Such love is amazing and perhaps one of the reasons there are those that have difficulty accepting God. It is overwhelming to be given such unadulterated love.

    Amen! Praise His name! So many times we think we have to get ourselves right before God can use us when, in reality, He can use us right where we are, at any given moment. Thanks for sharing!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
