Christmas Love- Did you know
Love / a baby/ yet before all creation
Blind/ now I see
Deaf though I did hear
Essential / Love/ Did you know this love
Not charity, never obscure
“...Moving mountains from its bedrock, yet I live without love” *
Tallying wrongs
Injustices
Love - is not easy
Remembering those who put up with everything and anything /trust and hope no matter what
They do.” *
Quiet reverence/ face to face love
God knows what is on the inside-words and actions are not always necessary
Accepting the lot in this life
No time to despair over life, deep seated joy**
“God will give you all the grace you need in every situation you face.”****
Heaven’s perfect lamb
Seeing, walking, hearing
Dead will live again
Did you know - newness
Saving of sons and daughters
Evergreen, light in all darkness
Crimson bow over all that is ununderstandable
“But one day, when Jesus arrives, we will see clearly, face-to-face”
“Born this happy morning”, Beginning and End
“Every tear from our eye wiped away”
Oh, how He loves, how He loves us
Love remains / today
The greatest is given on this Christmas Day
Christmas Love- Did you know, Glimpse poetry by Joe Holuta
About this poem: Christmas Love- Did you know is a poem about the love God has for us. God incarnate, becoming a man in Mary. Jesus lives, dies, and rose again to give us life and now seated in heaven. Thankful that once blind to salvation I now see. Many things happen in our lives that we only see in part and don’t understand and are heavy weight. The promise of God‘s love is always with us and someday all will be made clear and new to a wondrous eternity complete in every way that we now lack or struggle. Mary did you know is a song that covers the Love that never ends and was from all beginning for us.- Joe Holuta

***Ecclesiastes 5:19-20
****
"Love... it’s never rude, crude, or indecent—it’s not self-absorbed. Love isn’t easily upset. Love doesn’t tally wrongs or celebrate injustice; but truth—yes, truth—is love’s delight! Love puts up with anything and everything that comes along; it trusts, hopes, and endures no matter what. Love will never become obsolete….” 1 Cor 13: 5-8 voice
