(For anyone I missed - Merry Christmas) When Jesus Met Santa Claus God's Son was born on Christmas Day To bring the world His love. In Bethlehem a manger blessed, The North Star shone above. Through mortal days Son Jesus spake The wisdom of God's Word; And to this day around the world, His voice mankind has heard. But Jesus knew at traitor's hand He would be crucified; And yet God's love, a gift for all Must ever be descried. Both far and wide then Jesus trekked, In search of giving soul Who'd share with all His gift of love; Quest led to the North Pole. He met a kindly toymaker Who smiled and laughed a lot... "Believe in me and share God's love, Your soul shall perish not." This jolly man called Santa Claus In heed of Jesus' call, Vowed he'd give toys each Christmas night To children one and all. So Jesus smiled upon this man - That's how this story goes. It's said His Star would light the way, Reflecting reindeer's nose. From that day forth each Christmas Eve The elves have packed the sleigh With toys and love in Jesus' name To bless our Christmas Day. [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 12-25-1999).] |

What a beautiful way to connect the two! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Elizabeth Nail to the mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail- And give her to the god of storms, The lightning and the gale! -Oliver Wendell Holmes |

This was great! I loved the story. A wonderful tale! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Thank Ron for archival retrievery...[OK, it's not a 'REAL' word]...but without it, where could this have resided and be brought back to life so splendidly... I missed it the first time Nan...but not the second go-round... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
