Christmas is officially over
along with...
the hustle
the bustle
the planning
and expectation
We have...
unwrapped
tossed to the side and
moved on to the next
still searching
as Jesus lay in the manger...
out on the lawn
And it may take a few days
for us to get to Him
to remember
to realize
(that the stuff will never truly satisfy us)
But that our true gift has been left unopened
if we
left Jesus
out on the lawn as a baby...
still a baby...
in a manger
when what we should have done
was let Him into
our house
our hearts
our homes
as King!
