"You never lose by loving. you only lose by holding back..."

I thought id shurr this little poem, i got last christmas. Some of you may have remember it from one of the emails i sent out last year. ANyway its a great christmas reflection and wha not.

1 Corinthians-A Christmas Version

If i decorate my house perfectly with plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights and shiny balls, but do not have show love to my family, I'm just another decroator.

If i slave away in the kitchen, baking dozens of Christmas cookies, preparing gourmet meals and arranging a beautifully adorned table at mealtime, but do not show love to my family, i'm just another cook.

IF i work at the soup kitchen, carol in the nursing home and give all i have to charity, but do not show to my family, it profits me nothing.

If i trim the spruce with shimmering angels and crocheted snowflakes, attend a myriad of holiday parties and sing in the choir's cantana but do not focus on Christ, i have missed the point.

Love stops the cooking to hug the child. Love sets aside the decorating to kiss the husband. Love is kind, though hurried and tired. Love doesnt envy another's home that has coordinated Christmas china and table linens. Love doesnt yell at the kids to get out of their way, but is thankful they are there to be in the way. Love doesnt give only to those who are able to give in return but rejoices in giving to those who cant.

Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. Video games will break, pearl necklaces will be lost, golf clubs will rust, but giving the gift of love will endure.

LAst nite i was holding a polaroid picture and i was shaking it! hahaha Give a little this Christmas, give a little bit of your love to those who need it. Even to those who may not need it, give it to those who you even dislike or even may hate. Love never stops giving, juss like our Lord his arms are always wide open. Ready to embrace each and everyone one of us in his arms of love.
So wha are you waiting for and start spreading love today!

BUrr and i made our own version to deck the halls. haha it goes something like this...
