Subject: For those that may have lost someone close to them this past year and anticipate a tough Christmas, I'm posting a poem that a friend emailed me. It really touched me and made me cry. It's inside--->
In reply to: Janelle 's message, "I'm staying local. We always do a traditional Polish Christmas Eve with my dad's side of the family(which is really small). That's going to be hard this year because my grandpa passed away. Christmas day is spent with my mom's side of the family. The days following are my brother's and mom's birthdays. A busy busy season! And nope, xmas shopping isn't done yet. I work all the way through Thursday this week...yuck! A coworker brought this amazing buffalo wing dip to our xmas party this year and last year. If I get that recipe, I'll post." on 21:10:47 12/18/05 Sun

I'm Spending Christmas With Jesus This Year


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 that 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 sing.

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.
I cannot tell you of the splendor or the peace inside this place
Can you imagine Christmas with our Savior, face to face?

I will ask him to light your spirit as I tell him of your love.
So then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above.
So be happy for me, dear 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 blessing or love 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.
