Some said, Christmas is bad because it has a bad origin. Some said, it was a pagan feast turned to celebration of the birth of Christ. Some said, Christ never commanded it as a memorial like He did about His death. Some said, why Santa Claus? Why Christmas tree and lighting of it? Whatever- Christmas is sweet! To me and me for real- Christmas is not a myth, not a tradition, not a dream. It is a glorious reality and a time of joy.
Galatians 4:4-5 “But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons.”
Thank God, a day is set aside to remember God’s son born of a virgin Mary in Bethlehem’s manger; which became the link that bound a lost world to a loving God. From that manger, the child brought us into a new relationship with our Creator. Christmas means that God is interested in the affairs of people. To me that is significant and relevant and worthy of remembrance.
As we eat and drink-may we only clean our heart to be a sanctified gift to Him for all He had done.
Merry Christmas from Ekurwe: Igede watch.
