The Walk From Bethlehem : Inspirational Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

Each journey begins with the first step and each step taken carefully .

Walking around boundaries to discover roads  to eternity . 

On their journey Mary and Joseph had a difficult path to tread .

They were bound for Bethlehem where the birth of Jesus  awaited .

The road to a place where their way was guided by the light of a star .

This journey through the dark was made easy and the miles made not so far  ,

A link between God and man had presented not much  complication .

Parallel roads between Bethlehem and our final destination .

He invites us to share the miracle and harmony of his birth

Jesus broke down the barriers that were placed between heaven and earth .

Although there are many roads we will all meet on that glorious day .

From the stable door in Bethlehem he emerged to show us the way

From here on Earth to heaven above we follow him and do what's right .

Wisdom and insight brings us to higher ground where boundaries exist .

Rules of the road  are seeds of faith planted by Gods hand on lifes journey .

Acceptance was the way and he walked from Bethlehem to Cavalry .

He walked with reconciliation ,

healing , and emancipation .

He responded with love to violence and showed up victimization  .

To follow him we discover Bethlehem within , giving new birth

A  new understanding of life and knowing the value of self worth .

Christmas is a time to reflect on the journey  .

We all walk as one from this place here on earth , to a new home in heaven which soon  will  come  .
