Advent of the Promise: Day 25/Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :D Last two pieces for the advent project (and entrance of a Christmas project) is for all my friends!

 

 

Christmas Colours

White is the colour of holiness and purity

The Child of Heaven, born unto you and me

Our Salvation, the Messiah, Yaweh, King of Kings

To light the world for the meek in humility

The advent of the promise, come and see!




Blue is the colour of dreams of passion

God’s dream told through the prophets’ visions

Thousands of years we waited for the coming of His Son

Now, He has been born, Immanuel has come!

The Christ Child is the light of the new dawn




Red is the colour of the blood that will pour

To live and be every broken hearts’ cure

To die and be the perfect sacrifice for the world

To rise again so that we could live for much more

Than our own petty dreams for His visions are pure




Green is the coulour of everlasting life through Him

A life devoid of pain, tears, hate and sin

To come to a Home of peace in Heaven

We are not of this world that we are in

So, we look forward to the life and Home with Him

God With Us

 

The Father’s dream for the sinners

Since that bite into the forbidden fruit

Was to always be God with us

To the sons of Adam

And to the daughters of Eve

He gave an inheritance

Giving His most precious treasure

Giving His only begotten Son

Born among the animals

Born of the virgin, Mary, who praises the Lord

Born the King of Kings

With three kings bowing in reverence before Him

The Light of lights, among the outcasts

Angels singing “Gloria” in the sky

O, you who hear them tell it on the mountaintops

That your Lord and Saviour is born

He will draw the lost back to Him

He will heal the lame, and give sight to the blind

The deaf will hear the mute sing praises

Let the world know that God is with us

and this poem is for my pal, Chelsea! Get better soon, dude!:

Christmas in a Hospital

Christmas is in five days

But I fear I may not be home for it

The music rings and decor is up

But I’m not there to enjoy it with you

I should rejoice but days are so dark

And my tears pour down to drown me

While still, you are in my heart

And I want to see your face brighten

When you rip open the paper

Beaming with ecstasy and hugging the gift tight

I miss the fun we’d have together

I miss that cute smile of yours

I just want to be there for Christmas

I want to celebrate it with you!

The Reaching Light



 

Promise of the Advent: Day 15

For this Advent season, I will be creating and/or writing Christmas-inspired gifts for my friends until Christmas Day. This one is for my dear friend and beloved sister, Savvy. :)
 

Reaching for Starlight

 

Once upon a time in a place where imagination roams free, there were two princesses. These friends were as close as sisters. Princesses from separate kingdoms; the kingdoms of night and day. One princess was an enshadowed soul that was disowned and outcast from her royal family. The other was a zealous young spirit as a blazing fire, wild as the four winds, and free spiritedly far from her family and yet so near to their heart.

Princess Starlight of Lunaria, with beautifully shining golden hair and icy blue eyes. Within her heart was a dark storm that unveiled itself in the clothes of night. Pale white skin, soft and smooth that hid secrets underneath the scars which she covered up with the darkened sky. Her heart was shattered and scattered into a million pieces and caught in the night sky.

 

Then there was the princess of Onedath; Moor with her luxurious curls that would blaze red like veins of fire through the air and her deep dark brown eyes, always twinkling with joy. Her warmth of comfort was as a candle softly glowing for many. Whilst her rage was as magma to obliterate anything in her path for others. But despite her faults, Moor’s love was always reaching out…

 

It was the Christmas season, a time of joy and giving. But, not everyone was merry… This would be the first Christmas in Starlight’s exile. One night, Moor flew on the east wind and landed on a mountaintop, to see the twinkling tears of her friend so far, scattered through the twilight sky. In her a desire to reach out to her and comfort her, Moor called out to Starlight.

 

“My dearly beloved sister, what can I do to make you glad again?”

 

Northern lights filled the slowly darkening sky, whispering in Moor’s mind to just be present there. As Moor reached out her hand, casting rays of light and fire, to warm the trails of blue, purple, green and pink. She took Starlight’s hand from the empty blackness, drawing her closer to her heart, bringing warmth to her ghost, bringing out her colour and they wept in each other’s arms.

 

“For this Christmas night, I will gladly remain by your side, dear Starlight…” Moor whispered in Starlight’s ear, holding her to the solid mountain for only a time. She knew all the time she had left was until the sunrise, and Starlight would be gone… Back up into the expanse of the stars, beyond her reach until she could return at twilight, once again. Moor started a campfire, and held Starlight beside the warmth until dawn broke and they whispered one last soft goodbye, until they could meet again.

Advent of the Promise: Day 14

For this Advent season, I will be creating and/or writing Christmas-inspired gifts for my friends until Christmas Day.

 

This one is dedicated to God...

 

 

A Christmas Prayer

It’s Christmastime again

And I should be glad

Though the Christmas bells ring

I cannot lift my eyes to see

The beauty of the lights on the tree

It just doesn’t feel like any special time

It’s just another day, nearing to my end

So Lord, I only ask this favor of You

To bring joy to my world, and peace in this heart

All I want for Christmas is You

All I long for, this year is for You to

Tenderly break my heart; gather the pieces close

Please hold me to Your heart

I grow weary of crying tears only for myself

Break my heart for what breaks Yours

And bring me back to life, show me again

Why You sent Your Son to be born of Mary

And give me that as a reason to live

This is my Christmas prayer to You, my King

This is the plea I lay at Your feet Lord, just give me You…

Advent of the Promise: Day 11

For this Advent season, I will be creating and/or writing Christmas-inspired gifts for my friends until Christmas Day. This one is for my dear mini-me, Adells!

Your Silhouette

O Bethlehem, you have received a Saviour

And He is the Light unto the world

And to the Lord I say the beauty of this mystery

The love to make us one with each other and solely Yours

It makes Your shadow spread abroad

Jesus, I want to be like You on this earth

To be Your arms of peace, love and mercy

This connection between us, it is a rebirth

This babe has shed the light throughout history

Make it so that I speak the Truth, to be Your silhouette

O Israel, you have among You, your Saviour

And He has now shown you the true way to love

He wakes the dead, and the blind can see the Lord

He shows us all the ways of the Father above

Shows you that there is something more to live for

And the revolution has begun

I'll stand to say "I want to live like Christ on this earth"

To be His arms of peace, love and mercy

This connection between us, it is my rebirth

This King has shed the light throughout history

I'll stand and speak the Truth, to be His silhouette

O Calvary, you have crucified our Saviour

And He has wept over your transgressions

"It is Finished!" He cries; He bore the sins of the world

His dream in the manger come true to die for our sins

Thus the war has been won

 

So still I stand today; choosing to follow Him on this earth"

To be His arms of peace, love and mercy

This connection between us, it is my rebirth

This King has shed the light throughout history

I'll stand and speak the Truth, to be His silhouette

Celebrate the Coming

 

 

Snow falls and flutters down

To the awaiting ground, collecting

Nature sings the winter song

The melodies sing sweet for this Advent

On the first coming of the King; we look back gratefully

Then look forward to His return

Charity is for all times, but it is the season

To hold remembrance of that command

To give, love and die to self in a world that glorifies

Selling and buying, and getting what you want

“Good or naughty” determining a gift or a lump of coal

But what we need to do is prioritize our goals of life

To give what we can give; and love with all our might

For when the Word was made flesh,

His dream was set in motion; to give His life for us

That we’d be free and receive “God with Us”

So when you celebrate this season; celebrate the Child

Who came to shine the Light of Love and Grace

To a world in the dark; that we may be like

A candle in the rain to a world in need of healing

Day 1's piece of writing will be for my kind friend, stripey from Watty!

 

Advent of the Promise

 

I shut my eyes so that I can see

All the love that God has for us

That He would send such a gift to this world

And what He gave was "God with us"

 

A chorus of Christmas bells chime
As the carols ring throughout these hills

With a little sister under the tree lights at night

I ponder on the first coming of Immanuel

"Peace on earth; good will to men"

With such a well-known saying as this

With our eyes roaming through the city

Those words seem to be amiss

 

Thus charity is our calling to witness

To the advent of the Promise; our Christ

We be the peace, the change we wish to see

That by our life would magnify His Light

Day 2's piece of art is to none other than my dear friend, Eli...
