a baby in a manger

On the first day of christmas my TRUE LOVE gave to me, a baby in a manger. You might have guessed this one was coming...I am a pastor, but of all the gifts this is not only the first - it's by far the greatest. In fact without this first gift, none of the others on the list would have been possible. True love is highlighted above because it is God who truly loves me and God who sent his son because of that love (John 3:16). As we unwrap our gifts and share a meal with loved ones and maybe sneak a nap; may this gift of Christmas guide our hearts and minds this day. Merry Christmas everyone for the gift my TRUE LOVE gave to me, He also gave to you.
