I
thought one day, Oh what fun
To
design my very own Christmas cards
Sending
them one by one
I
thought of my natural brothers
How
they loved UK basketball games so
Together,
we would watch them on TV shows
They
would love a UK card I know.

In
my mind I started to design
A
Christmas card I thought would be fine
UK
and the cat, wearing a Santa hat
The
basketball goal and all to match
Now
they will enjoy this
This
joyful card from their Sis
But
in Jesus' eyes something was amiss.

I
drifted off to sleep
Happy
with my designed card in mind
One
that they would surely keep
This
card, one of a kind
Little
did I know
The
message I was to receive
In
a dream here below.

In
the dream I saw ballgame array
Around
the front of an area dimly displayed
With
Jesus walking in the background
Having
on His garment of red
Radiant
was the lighting but not a word said
Then
an humble voice begin to softly echo
"I
wouldn't steal from you"
The
words softly flowed
I
became awake and startling amazed
By the message as a whole
The
words penetrated my heart and soul.

Was
this an angel with the humble voice I heard
The
angel must have felt I had left out the Lord
Saddened
to think I had put something first
Without
realizing, I had robbed the Lord
Tis
Jesus' Birthday, King of all Lords
May
we honor and praise Him
And
forever let Him be divinely adored.

May
we keep Jesus in Christmas
Rejoicing
the Miracle of His birth
Our
precious Savior that came to earth
And
crown Him King always
First
in our lives, first everyday, first in every way
Forever,
may Jesus
be first on His Birthday.

For
Jesus kept us first
When
He hung on the cruel tree
He
died and hung there for you and me
Never
would He rob from us
Only
gave His life that we may be saved
And
abundantly bless...
Happy
Birthday Jesus
You'll
be on the front of my Christmas card
With
love, You will be first in my design
Precious
Savior of mine.
Blessings,
Danna
