Essence of Christmas



          We are in that special season of the year, a season of joy, of peace and of great tidings. It is a season of carols when we celebrate the birth of Christ the King, the redeemer of mankind. Jesus is the reason for season.

          Christmas is not just the time of festivity and merrymaking. It is more than that. It is a time of contemplation of eternal things. We must also spare time to reflect on the essence of the period, which is the love of God in humanity.

          At Christmas, we are expected to spare time to contemplate things eternal. We must remind ourselves that we are strangers here on earth; that our real home is in heaven, and that no matter how long we live, we shall suely die one day. We must also pray for peace in our homes, in the country and in the world at large.



          The spirit behind Christmas is that giving and sharing. We should also be like who understood the virtue in giving. It is through giving that we receive. Sometimes, the gains may not be natural but spiritual.
