What is Christmas?
To many it a season of festivity and nothing more than that
To another it a time of vacation from daily activity
To some it’s the celebration of birth of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ
I don’t know what you believe about the celebration but I sure know one thing is not just an ordinary celebration like the other ones.
But I wont like to wait much of your time reading history on how it start because I do know it would bore must of us… so I would like to go straight to the point…about what the season is all about it’s a season of giving you could say I don’t have enough to give but do you know you have some things you don’t make use of anymore why don’t you give that out and stop complaining about them “ a trash in a house might just be a treasure in another house”, it’s a of sharing not just money or material things but intangible things like love and affection some people are there very close to us depressed and dejected why don’t you say a word of encouragement to brighten them…
Have you ever thought about how Christ came, he never came in form of a rich but he humbled himself and was given birth to in a house where horses are kept and none of us was given birth to in such an emulating way.
