POETRY BY KATHY BOECHER
A most unlikely King was born upon that Christmas day – No purple robes or crown of gold. His bed was made of hay. But in that lowly place, within a manger small Lay Jesus, Christ, the Son of God who answered heaven’s call.
He didn’t come in glory, it was like every other day. His life was filed with poverty. He served in every way. He paid the price with His own blood, the best that He could give. And now He reigns in glory where we someday will live.
It would seem so unusual for the King of Kings to be placed in an animal trough and visited by shepherds and livestock at His entrance into the world. He should’ve been born in a castle with a group of servants at his royal cradle. This little child – this sweet baby – this King chose to come in humility and service to those He created. He is our redeemer, comforter and God. Merry Christmas to all my friends and family. May the peace that comes from that lowly bed, radiate and spread throughout the world on this Christmas morning.
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.

Life is a patchwork of moments — laughter, solitude, everyday joys, and quiet aches. Through scribbled stories, I explore travels both far and inward, from sunrise over unfamiliar streets to the comfort of home. This is life as I see it, captured in ink and memory. Stick around; let's wander together.
God's amazing grace removes walls and replaces those barriers with Jesus, freedom from sin's consequences, freedom to forgive, and freedom to love unconditionally.
