Christmas

Christmas is a time when we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
We remember God's love and affection for mankind in sending his only begotten son to die for our sins and restore man to God.
Christmas is a time when people give gifts, both young and old. People give and also expect to receive gifts. This act of giving is a symbol of God's act of love in that he GAVE. However, many have forgotten the reason for the season. Christmas season has been commercialized into retail season. People buy, buy, buy and buy till they can buy no more. Many don't have a clue of the significance of gift giving. We often get carried away by the hustle and bustle of the season(eating, drinking and partying) forgetting the original message of Christmas. What then is the message of Christmas? Christ was born to reconcile man to God, restore the glory of man and remind us of the pure love God has for us. Love so sweet,so divine.
Lets take a moment to reflect on the message of the Christmas.
Is it real in your life? Have you recieved Christ as your saviour? Have you been reconciled and restored?
