Joy to the World

The most important thing that I have been taught over the last decade or so is that Christ is King over every area of life. That I am to love God with all my heart, soul, and mind. That Christ is making things new and bringing his world to his knee. It is because of this that I can truly understand these lines from the great carol written by Isaac Watts.

“Joy to the world! The Lord is come:

Let Earth receive her King.”

Amen! and Amen!

Let Every Man be Jolly.

I refuse to plug into our modern consumerist “Happy Holidays” junk. Christmas is about spending time with family and friends, smoking a pipe around the fireplace, and reflecting on the gift of life. I pray that I will never forget the really important things, the stuff life is made of. This little Christmas poem is always helpful.

The Christmas Dinner

“Lo now is come the joyful’st feast!

Let every man be jolly.

Each room with ivy leaves is dress’d

And every post with holly.

Now all our neighbors’ chimney smoke

And Christmas blocks are burning;

Their ovens they with bak’t meats choke

And all their sits are turning.

Without the door let sorrow lie,

And if, for cold, it hap to die,

We’ll bury’t in a Christmas pie

And evermore be merry.”

I have never met Mr. House, probably never will. I have caught a glimpse of his genuis through his musings, which have been truly enjoyable and profitable. Two problems, what’s up with the poetry and he doesn’t post enough. So bookmark this blog and go back often.

Mary’s Magnificat

And Mary said,

My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior;

For he has looked on the humble estate of his servant.

For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed;

for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.

And his mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation.

He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts;

he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate;

he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich has has sent empty away.

He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy,

as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his offspring forever.”

Luke 2:46 – 55
