The poem “Pass It On” was inspired from a sermon of my pastor Ryan Barnett. The historical story of Christ did not start with the birth a little over 2,000 years ago but actually started with Adam and Eve. You are a part of His story. Christmas is a time when we see God working miraculously at the least likely place and at the least likely time! Similar to passing the light at a candlelight service, the Light of Christ is passed from person to person.
Christmas Eve Candlelight Service
You are a part
Of His story
That fulfills a promise
And such a mystery.
A miraculous deed
At the least likely place
And the least likely time
That offers grace.
A part of His story
That lets the Good News
Flow out to others
So they too are enthused!
Transferred from one person
To another
As a new life
Is discovered.
A life of peace,
Spiritual nourishment,
Sensational joy,
And encouragement.

I love this! So great to be reminded we each play an important role in God’s story.
Yes, it is good to be reminded that we are all a part of His story!
