The meaning to this day

It's Christmas here in Singapore time!!!




Many people associate Christmas to this jolly dude ^


or




Gifts


But...


It is really about....



The Birth of our Father, Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

 We continue to celebrate today because with the coming of "Immanuel," God with us, God has continued to be "with us" as he walked the earth, communing with us, and with the Holy Spirit that continues to be our constant comforter. Such a  gift of love, the gift of eternal life. 


What greater gift could we ask for?

 -------------------------------------------------

 A CHRISTMAS PRAYER

Loving Father, Help us remember the birth of Jesus,
that we may share in the song of the angels,
the gladness of the shepherds,
and worship of the wise men.

Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting. Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings, and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.

May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children, and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake. Amen.
 

Robert Louis Stevenson

 Come, let us praise the Lord!
Let’s shout praises to the Rock, who saves us.
~ Psalm 95:1



I love you Jesus, my father, my rock and my comforter, thank you for always being there for me.
