Hold Out For Hope

The Work of Christmas
by Howard Thurman

When the star in the sky is gone,
When the Kings and Princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flocks,
The work of Christmas begins.

To find the lost,
To heal the broken,
To feed the hungry
To release the prisoner,
To teach the nations,
To bring Christ to all,
To make music in the heart.

I am still trying to put it into words... but it was amazing. THANK YOU for praying and for reminding me that it is not about me... or about what anyone thinks about HOW I do.

It's about being true to God's message and giving it.
