ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS

Christmas is in the air. We can now observe that night is longer than daylight, moreover we can feel the cold air brought about by the season. Bazaars are everywhere, as Christmas shoppers already roam in department stores. Colored lights are also inviting to those who would wish to witness special set ups and displays. These are only few things or indications that Christmas countdown is already on its way and is fast approaching.

But, what is the true essence of Christmas? For me Christmas marks the day of our salvation because this is the day when Jesus was given to us by our dear Lord. The greatest Love was given to us on this season; enough reason for us to give it back to our Lord through our brethrens by sharing with them our blessings. Let the less fortunate brothers and sisters feel that they are also blessed with God’s love. Let them feel that like us, they are also important. Let us put a smile on their face by doing Christ-like acts such as doing charity works and fellowshipping with others.

In closing, it is right to do things in preparation for Christmas season. But we must remember the true essence of Christmas. That is, remembering the only reason for all this preparations and letting others know this fact that only Jesus is the reason for the season. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!
