Day 7: The Empty Stocking


What gift will you give JESUS in HIS stocking?

The wise men came with gifts.

"Our finest gifts we bring pa-rum pum pum pum To lay before the KING pa-rum pum pum pum"

But what did The Little Drummer Boy have?

"I am a poor boy too, pa-rum pum pum pum I have no gift to bring pa-rum pum pum pum That's fit to give our KING pa- rum pum pum pum"

The Little Drummer boy, so wanting to bring The Little BABY something,

but was "just" a poor boy with "just" a drum.

What did he have to give that would be fit for

THE BABY, THE KING?

Do you think like the Little Drummer Boy thinks~

What can I give to a KING because I am "just" a or have "just" a?

But then you look down and see that you have a drum and

you know how to pa-rum pum pum pum.

Maybe this would be good enough.

Maybe I would be good enough.

“Shall I play for you on my drum”, the Little Drummer Boy asks.

And I bet he wasn’t ready for the response he received..

Mary nodded.

Mary said yes.

Even though all he had was a drum.

And he played his best for

HIM.

And then they smiled at him.

And then the word

COME gets louder.

Just COME as you are

with whatever you have

&

whoever you may or not be.

COME to the BABY who whispers your name

JUST COME.

"Then HE smiled at me pa-rum pum pum pum" Me and my ___________!

How will you fill in the blank?

Just

"COME they told me pa-rum pum pum pum"

to

THE BABY

Who wants to be your KING

&

Give HIM your heart~

Not only so THE BABY'S stocking isn't empty,

but so yours will be filled!

"Come and listen, all you who fear GOD; let me tell you what he has done for me. I cried out to HIM with my mouth; HIS praise was on my tongue. If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD would not have listened; but GOD has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer. Praise be to GOD, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld HIS love from me!" (Psalm 66:16-20)

PA-RUM PUM PUM PUM
