Christmas in our Hearts

        Christmas Season- a time to share… A time to love… to the needy… to the unfortunate… And to those who are deprived.

        There are five real essence of Christmas for me. First, LOVE. There is a saying that runs like this “You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving”. Meaning to say that when you love somebody you give what is best for him/her. Because that’s what Jesus did as we can read in the book of John chapter 3 verse 16. Second, HUMILITY. Christmas is Humility because Jesus was given birth in a place because he is the only Son of God, but he humbles himself. Third, FORGIVENESS. Christmas is Forgiveness because God has forgiven us through Jesus Christ and so we should learn to forgive also the sins of others. Fourth, SHARING. Sharing is giving what you have to others as manifested in the life of Jesus. And the last but not the least is UNITY. Christmas is a time when all races rejoiced for the birth of Jesus Christ, the savior. Christmas should not be focused in material things that we give/ received only, but it should be focused in Jesus who saves us from this sinful world.

        Amidst beautiful decorations and luxurious preparations, may we not forget the real essence of Christmas:

…LOVE

…HUMILITY

…FORGIVENESS

…SHARING    &

…UNITY.
