Christmas’s True Essence
A few days from now, we will be celebrating the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. The whole of Christendom awaits the event with joy. But do we know the meaning of Christmas? What is the true essence of Christmas?
To me, Christmas is gift giving. It is the time to share the blessings that God has given us. Christmas means forgiveness. It is the most appropriate time to understand that man is born to commit mistakes, that to err is Human, to forgive is Divine. It is therefore a season of peace and we can only attain real peace if we forgive our enemies.
Christmas is love. God gave us His only Son to save us from eternal perdition. It is only by fitting that we should give help to the less fortunate, to the needy people in the spirit of Christ. Yes, let us gift others and in doing so, we can say that Christ being given to us by the Father shall not be in Vain.
Let us then keep and celebrate Christmas everyday in our life.
