Loving Eyes

I almost put this one on my calendar card. Seems the other one is what God wanted, though, as it has touched so many.

Loving Eyes

When I look at a manger scene,
I see a blood-stained cross.
The Babe grew up and died for me.
My gain for heaven’s loss.
Do I think of this miracle
Each day, throughout the year?
Do I forget the sacrifice He made
To draw me near?
Lord, please help me remember that
You gave Your Son for me,
So I could come to heaven and
Love You eternally.
Please clear my faulty vision and
Help me to realize
No matter what I’m looking at
Your Love should be my eyes.

Feel free to print, share or repost anything on this blog. I do ask that you let me know if you use one of my poems on your blog or at your church somehow. It might give me an idea of better ways to spread His words, which I am always looking to do. And of course, always keep the copyright symbol and my name with the poem so I continue to have the right to use them. You may not realize that if something is posted enough times without the copyright notice, I could lose the copyright and then someone else could conceivably file for a copyright and I would no longer be able to use my own poems! It has happened, so please make sure the (c) is always on the poem whenever you repost. Thanks!

God bless,
Denise McKenney
