    How to find out who wrote a poem
    This year think first of someone else. Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the Earth. Write a love letter. Share some treasure. Gladden the heart of a child. Welcome a stranger. Thank God for what you are and what you have, whether it be great or small.

    I Googled and found various versions of that on Christian websites. It seems to be one of those "Author Unknown" pieces. Here is the longest version I found (was a newspaper clipping in a Bible) --

    “God's Promises for the New Year”
    A list for us: Think first of someone else, Take pleasure in the wonder
    & beauty of the earth, Write a love letter, Share some treasure,
    Gladden the heart of a child, Welcome a stranger,
    Thank God for what you are & what you have whether great or small,
    Mend a quarrel, Give a soft answer, Seek out a forgotten friend,
    Dismiss suspicion & replace with trust, Keep a promise. Find the time.
    Forego a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Apologize if you were wrong. Listen.
    Try to understand. Examine your demands on others. Appreciate. Be Kind.
    Be gentle. Laugh a little. Laugh a little more. Deserve confidence.
    Express your gratitude to others. Pray for peace. Go to church.
    Love completely. Speak your love. Speak it again. Speak it still once again.
    These are simple things, you have heard them all before.
    This year they can change your life.
    HIS List
    I will bless thee. Genesis12:2,
    I will not fail thee. Joshua 1:5,
    I will heal thee. 2 Kings 20:5,
    I will guide thee. I will instruct thee. Psalms 32:8
    I will strengthen thee. Isaiah 41:10
    The list goes on- I think the point is clear
    Everyone have a great day! Love Mom/Susan

    This site is nice with another version in the shape of a Christmas tree -- Christmas Poems
