Sunday Reflections- Christmas Rush? Hush Little Baby
It's All Been Done
So easy to rush from here to there
Looking for presents born of love
Searching endlessly at Radio Shack
Or Wallmart or Online to try to track
That package; will it get here in time?
Hush Little Baby
It's all been done
By the Spirit
So easy to scramble about
Getting the tree and the lights
Pulling out that blow up nativity
Or nodding reindeer and making divinity
While spreading good cheer
Will the cookies get cooked, the
Pies get baked?
Hush Little Baby
It's all been done
By The Father
Not easy to be at Grandma's house,
With not quite enough time to stop at the
In-laws- Fighting the traffic to get there on time,
To make it happen might take every last dime
Will the snow chains stay on? Will the alarm go off?
Hush Little Baby
It's all been done
By The Father, in the Spirit, through His Son.

Post a CommentThank you Allene, that means so much to me.
Oh, Loraine, I just happened to check this out now. Here it is a month after Christmas, but your poem just stopped me in my tracks. So moving. So real. Linda's right... the format is absolutely striking. It hit me in the gut & brought me to tears. My life if full of not-enough-time issues. This was an unexpected little gift. Thank you. ; }
When we truly live in the moment, we trust in the Divine Caretaker, and we can be at peace and we have everything we need right now.
Very nice, Loraine! Great reminder of what's REALLY important. :)
that means so much to me coming from both of you.
Lorraine, this is wonderful! I just love it love it! The message is lit up with truth, the format is ingenius. Good for you, hipchick
