Mary and Joseph started Christmas you
know.
They brought the first gift.
They were willing participants.
They wrapped the first gift.
Theirs were the first earthly hands that
touched God’s face
When He was born on that first Christmas
morn.
The wrappings weren’t as lovely as
today’s wrappings.
They were coarse and thin.
But they warmed the baby.
They wrapped God’s Son.
What all was wrapped up in that baby’s
birth?
Mary and Joseph didn’t fully know.
But they trusted the story
And they cared for their child
The shepherds brought adoration and joy
The wise men laid their gifts before the boy
And we, what do we bring?
The perfect gift would be our hearts of
gratitude
That is enough.
