On Christmas we are festive.
Yet we pause and take the time.
To commemorate Jesus,
born to save mankind.

Thanksgiving To God - (By Tom Balistreri)

I thank You Lord with all my heart,
for the many gifts You impart.
Each day with You is a fresh start.
You promise love that won’t depart.

The Bragging Darkness

The darkness bragged of its power. 
How it could strip the colors bare. 
How it was strengthened in the shadows. 
Fear made imaginations there. 
It was awesome and majestic. 
None could escape its might. 
Then it fled in terror. 
At the arrival of The Light.

A Timely Word - (By Thomas B)

A good word is timely,
and pleasant to the soul.
It binds spiritual wounds,
and begins to make one whole.

Ever Climbing - (by Tom Balistreri)

We were ever climbing.
Trying to get to You.
But You seemed so far away,
despite what we could do.

Then to our amazement,
in more than we could trust.
You brought us into union,
by coming down to us.

Like The Wind - (by Tom Balistreri)

Like the mystery of the wind,
that comes from who knows where,
the Spirit flows from God,
as help and gentle care.

Waiting Gracefully - (by Tom Balistreri)

Lord,
I do not know, or understand,
your mighty works, or wondrous plans.
Help me to be, what I must,
increase in me, patience and trust.
