Do you know the true meaning of Christmas?
Read on to feast your eyes with the correct answer that brings joy to the
world, forever and ever.
When people mention Christmas, the first
few things that come into one’s mind are often Christmas tree, light and shiny
decorations; Santa Claus and Christmas gifts; buffet and party. They are all
merry things to enjoy, but none of them tells the true meaning of Christmas, which involves a priceless blessing out of incomparable love and a real happening that
saves everyone (our ancestors and next generations included as well).
On a silent night, a virgin gave birth to a
lovely child. His name is Jesus Christ. The place of the birth was a manger
because his parents, Mary and Joseph, couldn’t find a place in the taverns. The
cold weather didn’t undercut the love and warmth shown by his parents. Angel
announced to the shepherds the new born king, whereas, three kings from far
away followed the star to find the infant and pay their worship to him with
precious gifts. Many people came to see the child and shared the little family’s
joy. Behold! How adorable the child is!
What a deficiency that we didn’t see the
peaceful sight of the Holy Family everywhere at Christmas days! The scene was
often limited, available in church or school only. Christmas tree, light,
decoration, gift-wrap, buffet and party were all over. Gifts started the
countdown of their lifespan. Life is back to normal, but never exactly the same
due to this humble and glorious birth. If you miss a glimpse of the birth of
Savoir in the last Christmas, I hope my photos will give you consolation and
fill up the inner void that was overlooked and yet rooted deep in everyone’s
heart.
Many people know but ignore the truth that
this little child is both God and man. He came to this world in human form to
die for us sinners on the Cross at age 33 so that we could be saved from sins
and reconcile with God. Welcome to be a Christmas angel to spread the Good
News. You don’t need to have a good voice and boldness to stand in front of
people. All you need to do is decorate your home / office / the outer area with
the manger theme. Replicate the blessing sight and bring joy to the world. Wish
everyone to be reminded of the real cause of the Christmas celebration and
cherish God’s salvation that could be easily attained if we use our free will
to accept it wholeheartedly.
