A thoughtful gift for the Christmas season. A beautiful card stock bookmark with gold satin ribbon measuring 2" x 6" inscribed with a wonderful story of the reason for Christmas (see below). At the base is a detachable metal pin measuring 1/2" x 1". A simple cross emblazoned with the Star of Bethlehem as representing the life of Jesus from Birth to the Cross. Pin comes with a rubber back to attach to a coat, sweater or shirt.
The story on the card reads:
THE CHRISTMAS CROSS
The prophets told the story,
A special child would be born.
This baby would be the Son of God,
To celebrate Christmas morn.
They were very far from home,
A small town named Bethlehem.
Joseph was in total disbelief,
For there was no room for them.
A stable would have to do,
As God sent His Son to Earth.
Mary placed Jesus in a manger,
Now to celebrate his birth.
The angels found the shephards,
Bringing glory from above.
They told them how they'd find the child,
Our God's greatest gift of love.
Wise men were to follow next,
Led by a star in the night.
They brought gold and myrrh and frankincense
To worship God's perfect life.
Christ came to us on Christmas,
God knew the ultimate cost,
The baby sleeping in the manger,
Would forgive us on the cross.
