Do YOU Hear What I Hear? (Poem)


Do YOU Hear What I Hear?
Said the night sky to the Wise men three, 
 Do you SEE what I see, 
Way up in the sky, Wise men three?
Do You see what I see, 
A Star, a Star, 
Shining in the night, 
Guiding thee to the Saviour and Light, 
to the place where Faith becomes Sight. (Matt. 2:1-12)

Said the Faithful shepherds to the shepherd fold,
Do you HEAR what I hear, 
Singing through the night, clear and bold,
Do you hear what I hear,
A multitude of the heavenly host, praising Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Peace on Earth, Goodwill from coast to coast. (Luke 2:13&14)

Sang the Angels' song to the shepherd men,
Do you KNOW what we know,
On this day, here in Bethlehem,
Do you know what we know,
A child is born, lying in a manger cold, 
Ye shall find Him wrapped in swaddling clothes, 
resting sweetly in peaceful repose. (Luke 2:8-12)

Said the Shepherds to the people known abroad,
LISTEN to what we say,
A Saviour's born, which IS Christ the LORD,
LISTEN to what we say,
We came with haste,  found Him where He lay,
Good tidings of great joy,  angels did say,
He will turn our darkness to day! (Luke 2:14-18)

He is truly GOODNESS AND LIGHT! (Luke 2:32) (M.H.)(FM)

Sacrifice of Thanksgiving Recipe


As we begin to prepare to cook our Thanksgiving meals this week, may we remember this important recipe. Psalm 107:22 says, " And let them SACRIFICE (surrender) THE SACRIFICES (something special or precious)  OF THANKSGIVING, and declare His works with rejoicing." The Lord considers our giving of thanks to Him PRECIOUS! Here is His recipe for doing so:


A Sacrifice of Thanksgiving Recipe:
(Psalm 100)
  1. First we are to : "MAKE a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands." vs 1
  2. Then we have to "KNOW ye that the LORD is God: it is HE that hath MADE US, and NOT we ourselves; we are His sheep and the people of His pasture." vs 3
  3. Next we "ENTER into His gates with THANKSGIVING , and into His courts with praise: BE THANKFUL UNTO HIM, AND BLESS HIS NAME." vs. 4
  4. Finally " SERVE the LORD with gladness: come before His presence with singing." vs 2 "FOR THE LORD IS GOOD: His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endureth to all generations." vs.5 
  5. "O TASTE and see that the LORD IS GOOD..." Psalm 34:8

I pray that all of you have a BLESSED THANKSGIVING in the LORD! May we ever be mindful to give Him the thanks and praise that are DUE unto HIS NAME daily! 
"O that men would praise the LORD for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men." Psalm 107:8
