When I Think of Christmas By Krystle Nicole Martin
When I think of Christmas, I think of the ultimate gift, Christ. When I think of Christmas, I think of You. When I think of Christmas, I think of pure love coming to earth. When I think of Christmas, I think of joy in the midst of sadness. When I think of Christmas, I think of Mary making an amazing journey home. When I think of Christmas, I think of Joseph and how protective he was of her. When I think of Christmas, I think of the ultimate gift, Christ. He was, is, and forever will be our Hope. He was, is, and forever will be our Prince of Peace. He was, is, and forever will be the ultimate gift of love from the Father. The greatest gift God has ever given humanity is, was, and forever will be, Jesus. He is the bridge that connects us, the love that would heal us, and the life that would restore us. So, when I think about Christmas, I don’t think about gifts under the tree, but the love of those around me. When I think about Christmas, I think of the ultimate gift, Jesus.
I live in Oklahoma. I am a poet. I love being an encouragement to other people. I don’t want to write just to write. I want to write with purpose. I want my words to help someone else in need. I want to be intentional with what I am given. I want to be a blessing to others. 42 | M AG A Z I N E N A M E PAGE 3 41
