The Greatest Gift

Christmas is in the air, guys! Are you ready to have fun? Here's my greeting for everyone. I edited this picture of Jesus Christ, taking up His cross and laying His whole life for us. You can grab it or upload it to your blogs if you want, but I guess you all prefer to have those "chocolate-coated greetings", and I can't help but wonder why.. I made this not just to be unique but also to tell you what Christmas really means to me..



As Matthew 1:21 says..
"She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

You might be saying right now, "Yes, we know it's Jesus Christ's Birthday.. and then?" And then this.. It's Jesus' birth month and we shouldn't be celebrating it in a wrong way. Well, I may sound like a mother to you right now, it doesn't matter. I know my message can be helpful by any means. It really disappoints me that some of us knows only how to have fun but doesn't really know what's the essence of Christmas. And much more disappointing is this, some of us knows the true essence of Christmas, but chooses to keep it to ourselves. Yes, there's no wrong in having fun, in fact that's what we have to do -- celebrate. But how about those people who cannot celebrate the way that we can? They need love. This season of giving, we should share Jesus to other people. To the less unfortunates, with mediocre lives. Even to those who are rich, "in-clover" people but doesn't have the love and joy in their hearts. Jesus is our Savior.. and knowing that He is, it symbolizes that God will never leave us nor forsake us..

Matthew 1: 22 to 23 says..
"
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: "The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him "Immanuel"—which means, "God with us."

Jesus is God's gift to us. It reminds us that even though this world can be so evil most of the time, He still loved us despite all things. It is the gift of Salvation. The Gift of Eternal Life. The Gift of True Love, and well I surmise that that's the greatest gift we can ever receive, right?

John 15:13 says..
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

I do believe that there's no greater love than that. And this Christmas let us give all the glory to God who gave His son for the redemption of the world. Don't spend your time "party-ing" and doing things that belongs to the world. Have fun but at the same time, please God. (He is the reason for our celebrations in the first place) That's the greatest gift we can ever give to Him -- our own life also. We don't need to do the same thing (Crucifixion) of course, but living a life that glorifies Him is pleasing and I think, we should start right away. Share Jesus, especially to your loved ones and those you really care about. That's all and have a joyous Christmas guys!


P.S.
I short cut niyo na lahat, 'wag lang ang word na Christmas. Don't put it as "X-Mas". It's the name of our Lord. Thanks.

P.P.S.
Here's a good picture of God's Greatest Gift, I hope you learn something from it.



Happy Birthday, Jesus Christ!

P.P.P.S.
Any way, Jesus is alive. I just want to remind you about the sacrifice that He did. And that is the meaning of Christmas! Love y'all!
