For those of you who celebrate Christmas and believe in the Bible, this idea is really universal. It would make a nice simple and inexpensive gift for a neighbor or friend.
Here is the poem:
A Prayer for December
Dearest God,
Please never let me
Crowd my life
Full to the brim
So like the keeper of Bethlehem's inn
I find I have no room for Him.
Instead, let my heart's door
Be ever open,
Ready to welcome
The newborn king.
Let me offer the best I have
To Him
Who gives me everything.

After Christmas the key could be placed on your key ring to remind you all year to make room for the Savior in your life. Thanks Amy for sharing this great idea!

I tried the link to the poem and was unsuccessful. Perhaps you would consider printing it directly on the blog site?
ReplyDeleteThe poem that goes along with the key is now printed within the post. Sorry about that lost link. You can still see the original post at the idea room if you click on the very first link within the post.
