    Christmas Begins with Christ

     One clear and starry night a child was born
    In a manger wrapped in swaddling clothes was he adorned
    Kings came from afar bearing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh
    For this child who is the Messiah according to the revelation they had heard
    “Hark! ” the herald angels did sing
    But, many didn’t then and still don’t know that he is the King of Kings
    From the time he was born, he was destined to die for our sins
    Though he was without sin himself and hurt no one, many chose and still choose today to deny him
    He is the reason for this season we celebrate
    When this little one was born, he changed everyone’s possible fate
    It is because of him that all who are alive still have a reason to live
    He is the greatest gift of all gifts that anyone could give
    For such a wonderful gift you might think there is nothing that could be given in return
    There is a reciprocal gift, but it’s not something you can buy or earn
    It is simply to receive what has been given, and that is the gift of eternal life
    Many have tried to define the meaning of this season of giving called Christmas
    But, this season of giving we know as Christmas begins with Christ

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
