I Still Believe in
Miracles and
Magic,
God and Santa Claus

You hear a lot of
“Bah
humbug’s”
at this
time of year.
A lot of “Here we go
again,”
and little
Christmas
cheer.
You hear a lot of
groaning
and some
complaining
too.
You hear a lot of
negative,
the
positive
is few.
But I get so excited
when
it’s time to
deck the halls.
deck the halls.
I fear, I must confess,
I
have myself
a ball.
I look forward to
the
chaos of this
busy
time of year.
It brings out the child
in
me, and lots of
Christmas
cheer.
I love to sing Christmas
carols
about the
newborn
King.
And my heart swells
with
joy when I hear
the choirs
sing.
I love to hear the
story
about my
Savior’s
birth.
I am humbled by the
miracle
of God
come
down to earth.
Every time I see Mary,
Joseph
and Jesus
in the
nativity
My heart is filled with
wonder
and I fall
down
to my knees.
When I hear of the wise men,
shepherds
and a
manger-stable
bed.
I know a cross and crown
of
thorns is where
God’s
Son was led.
Although this happened
long
ago in a far-off
distant
land
It doesn’t change that Jesus
is Son
of God
and Son
of man.
This is what brings
such joy to this
Holy time of year
when we celebrate Christ’s
birth
and we spread
love,
hope, and cheer.
This is a time of miracles
and magic
and the
chance
to share God’s love.
A chance to give to those
nearby
who don’t have
as much
as us.
This is the time to visit
Santa
Claus and to
sit
upon his knee,
to watch the children’s
faces
as they light up
with
joyous glee.
This is the time to get
together
with our
family
and friends,
the time to forgive each
other
and let our feuds
and fights
all end.
Yes, at this special time
of
year as we celebrate
Christ’s
birth, I pause,
For you see, I still believe
in
miracles and magic,
God
and Santa Claus.
Until next time, my Friends, follow your dreams
