~ The Shining Star ~
January sixth is the feast of
the wise men
It was on this day the shining
star
Led them to Jesus at night,
When the earth was still and all
was silent
There came wise men,
Looking for the baby surrounded
in light.
Angels were softly singing in
the background
The sky had a wonderful light to
behold
The earth was a pathway to The
Christ child
For people to come from all over
To give such gifts untold.
When the wise man came
There was such joy
I wish I could have seen the
baby boy
They had with them frankincense,
myrrh and gold
Given with love,
I did not have a gift, so I gave
the child
to be forever His,
My heart and soul.
The King of Kings thanked the
wise men and blessed them
And for those who did not have a
gift
The baby Jesus smiled and there
was a glow
Everywhere you looked
It started to snow,
As the poor people saw..a
miracle happen,
Wonders falling from the sky
Each one with the baby Jesus
that day,
Received a gift from on high,
Joy, be in the highest and peace
on earth to men
The wise men as they left saw
this sight and then,
They bowed their heads and
prayed.
Thank you God for making January
sixth
A most wonderful day

Let us remember that the
Christmas heart is a giving
heart
a wide open heart that thinks of
others first.
The birth of the baby Jesus
stands
as the most significant event in
all history
because it has meant the pouring
into a sick world
of the healing medicine of love,
which has transformed all manner
of hearts
for almost two thousand years...
Underneath all the bulging
bundles
is this beating Christmas heart.
-George Matthew Adams-
