Christ Came to Stay in Our Broken World

The presence
Of Emmanual,
God with us,
Jesus Christ,
The Creator
In human flesh,
Is continual,
Not annual.
Christ doesn’t go away
And come again
Each Christmas Day.
He came to stay.
Jesus said:
“I am with you always!”
Although Jesus is now
Seated in Heaven
At the right hand
Of God the Father
He now also lives,
Present and active,
Inside His true followers,
And what we do
To the people
We consider to be
“The least of these”
We do to Jesus.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
