It's Christmas Time!

Thanks to Heaven above, it's Christmas time once more. We always associate this season as a time of plenty and fun especially that we had been conditioned since childhood. We should be thankful to our Creator that He spared us from calamities; and if ever we're not so fortunate, at least we're still alive. (There are many people right now all over the globe that no longer exist today because of various reasons--diseases, war, crime, accident, suicide.)

The actual meaning of Christmas is sharing and spiritual growth. Lord Jesus Christ came to the world to share Himself for our redemption from sins. We should also likewise share ourselves to the less fortunate members of our society either through material things or to extend our time and ourselves to worthy causes.

Usually I observe that it's only during Christmas that we show our charitable nature. After Christmas, we forgot that we have still neighbors who need our time, our ears, our sympathy.

So, let's not forget that our ultimate aim during Christmas is spiritual growth and reflection to the true meaning of existence.
