This morning I came across the following poem…
What can I give Him
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd,
I would give Him a lamb.
If I were a Wise Man,
I would do my part-
But what I can give Him,
Give my heart.
It reminded me of a special gift my mom and dad gave our children years ago called “What God Wants for Christmas” by Barbara Rainey of FamilyLife. It comes with a book and 7 boxes. Each day you read a part of the story and open a box and it goes through the Christmas story. On the 7th day inside the box is a mirror and the book says… “What does God want for Christmas? You, the one He created!” It is such a sweet way to go through the Christmas story with little ones. It is also a wonderful reminder for us all as we prepare Him room that all Jesus wants in all of creation is our hearts.
