christmas spirit

it blows my mind
that my little life
is part of the bigger picture,
that i play a part
in his rescue plan.

and the hero of this epic story
is in love
with me.

he looks at me
with passion and delight.
and for christmas
he gives himself
as an everlasting gift.

"In the Christian view, however, the ultimate evidence for the existence of God is Jesus Christ himself. If there is a God, we characters in his play have to hope that he put some information about himself in the play. But Christians believe he did more than give us information. He wrote himself into the play as the main character in history, when Jesus was born in manger and rose from the dead. He is the one with whom we have to do."

-Timothy Keller Reason for God
