Life That Brings Joy

 Dark night under starry skies.

Humble shepherds huddling ‘round 

     a fire’s warming blaze.

Quiet conversation

     Shared struggle …shared frustration

          Shared hope…shared hopelessness.

               Shared sorrow.

Suddenly...

     Bright light illumines the night sky!

     Bright beams of joy blaze 

          'round about them!

     Heaven’s shining visitor brings the news.

          “Good news of great joy 

               for all people.”

The Life has come!

The long-awaited Life is born!

     Leave behind your sadness!

     Release your sorrow!

          Look to the Life!

          Look to the Joy!

“For unto you is born today the Savior!”

Go, now! Search for Him!

With all your heart, 

     seek for this Life 

          that brings joy!

Joy unspeakable and full of glory.

     Unquenchable joy. 

          Unstoppable joy.

                                                                       Undefeatable joy.

  

May our hearts be filled this joy.

     May we truly KNOW this Life.

          May we always live 

               in the light of His joy!
