Creatively Thinking About Christmas

Daily writing prompt
How are you creative?

Christmas Mary
Gave Birth to Christ.
Now the world says
Merry Christmas
But doesn’t see
Lord Jesus Christ
Who came to save
People from sins.
Look beyond the
Gifts and food and
Decorations.
Take time to say,
Happy birthday, Jesus!
(Matthew 1:21)

Eight days later
Simple Simeon
Was Spirit-led
To hold Jesus
In his own arms.
Then Simeon said
By the Spirit,
This child’s a light,
Revelation
For all people.
He will reveal
And deeply heal
The inner thoughts
Of multitudes.
(Luke 2:25-35)

Christmas reminds
Us to wake up
And to notice
Revelation
That comes through Christ.
(2 Corinthians 4:6)

Be creative
This Christmas Day.
Find a fresh way
To adore Christ
And to hear what
He has to say!
(John 10:27)

Wake up to Jesus! If the risen Jesus isn’t your Savior, your Lord, and the literal Master and Head of your daily life, then your Christmas is decapitated.

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!
